Opinions Wanted Friday: Race Photos

How in the holy hockey sticks do some of you take such fantastic race pictures??? Bobbi, RunnersRambles, Chic Runner...you know who I'm talking to here, come on folks share the secrets!!

This is my only semi-decent picture and it came from Meghann the Graduate!NOTES:


1. Don't forget to enter the E-Cloth giveaway



2. Pardon the random page changes, I'm trying to figure it out



3. Kitty has a urinary tract infection...we think. So thus far he is curable!



4. I think I will have some good running news for you next week



5. Stay tuned for more giveaways and...acupuncture?

Gratitude Journal
June 19
I am grateful for the funds to try many treatments
I am grateful for a husband who mows the yard
I am grateful for a husband who...wants to run a half marathon?!?!
I am grateful for nothing being on tv so I have no reason not to read
I am grateful for all the fun questions I've received lately

29 good vibes:

I have always wondered the same thing!!

I for one, never see the photographer until it's too late. :(

Lisa Slow-n-Steady said...

antibiotics working for kitty? hope so!

Mel-2nd Chances said...

i have very few 'decent' race pics too. poor kitty. :(

Amanda said...

I always look really goofy in mine, and my feet are never off the ground so I look like I am just shuffling along (probably because I am!) Have a great weekend!

joyRuN said...

You look like you're having a blast!!

Jogger said...

I know, my race pix always suck. I am one of those "red-faced runners"...so, no matter how I pose, I always look like I'm on the verge of a heart attack.

SOOO...I just realized that I never sent out your binder. I'm so sorry. The cleaning people at my office stuck it under a pile miscellaneous files that I never need, and I FORGOT!

I'm sending it out today.

aron said...

haha i dont think i have that many but thank youuuu :) :)

Mel -Tall Mom on the Run said...

Hubby wants to run a half Marathon!! SWEET!! My hubs and I were watching "Spirit of the Marathon" and he said he would like to run a MArathon with me someday, this from the guy who once said running more than 3 miles was not for him..

Have a good weekend!

Mel -Tall Mom on the Run said...

I am a natural poser so my race photos thus far have been pretty good. Know where your cameras are and cheesy it up. The double arm wave always looks good :)

X-Country2 said...

For every quasi decent picture I post, there's at least a few where I look like DEATH! I just choose not to post those. :o)

Have a great weekend!

tfh said...

I take terrible pictures! Acupuncture... mmm, I love acupuncture! Have a great weekend.

allijag said...

lol - i love that pic of you!

glad to hear the diagnosis for kitty so far is a good one!!! keep us updated!

D10 said...

I am so not photogenic when it come to running photos. I don't think I have had one yet.

Chic Runner said...

Glad the kitty is doing good :) I seriously work REALLY hard to make sure all my race pictures are good. Sadly, that is what i think about. ha ha ha.

Nikki said...

I always look like a total lame-o in my face photos. If I'm not wearing something stupid, then the camera has caught me with a really dumb looking expression on my face. I have very few I am proud to put out there! You're not alone...

Jamie said...

I always look like a big, sweaty mess in race pics. Not sure how everyone else manages to take great ones!

Glad to hear kitty is curable!

Every Gym's Nightmare said...

ahaha I think that picture is awesome

Lacey Nicole said...

LOL- "P.O.S" i laughed so hard at that... and how you said "and i wondered why you would keep reading" oh my oh my thank you for that comment :)

Katie said...

That is a great pic of you running! I have run a ton of races and I am lucky if I get a few a year that I would actually like to stick on the fridge!
Enjoy your weekend and I hope Kitty starts feeling better soon! :)

NY Wolve said...

My race pix are uniformly terrible. I have yet to find one that looks like what I think I look like when I am running. Maybe that is my problem...

LG said...

i agree - glad there is nothing good on tv these days.

Danica's Daily said...

I agree with you - I have yet to manage a good race pic too! Yours is cute though - love your happiness in it :)

Fair Weather Runner said...

ha i'm with you on the race photo thing, i always look ridiculous... but you look like you are having fun in that picture!! hope kitty gets better soon.

Abby said...

That's awesome that David wants to run a half! You've got a built-in running buddy!

Abby said...

built in... live in... same difference...

Janie said...

Ah the picture is great! Sorry about your kitty how all is better soon!! I love my cats! I have two, one of which keeps walking in front of my computer screen!!!

Annette said...

Great race photo! I always look like I'm dying or worse!

Julia (Jogging My Memory) said...

I hope your kitty is ok!

Denise said...

My cat is still struggling with one, too. I thought he was getting better but then the other day he peed blood. We have him on a new antibiotic now so hopefully that helps. I hope your kitty feels better soon.
