Pictures of me running a half marathon, Marathon Eindhoven, 12-10-2008

Pictures Johan took:

Picture 1
Me with my start number on my back. It turned out that most people wore theirs on the front, and that might have been more convenient for pictures and such, but I do believe it was more comfortable on my back.

Picture 2
In the starting area, before it got very busy there.

Picture 3
After what seemed like ages, we were finally moving...

Picture 4
This was at about 15 km. Johan saw me approaching in the distance.

Picture 5
Getting closer...

Picture 6
And, I spotted a Johan! See me smile!

Picture 7
A close-up...

Picture 8
And off I was again

Picture 9
Disappearing in the distance

Picture 10
This is at the finish. Can you see me yet?

Picture 11
Now, then, perhaps?

Picture 12
Yes, that's me, on the left...

Picture 13
Perhaps you can tell that my leg hurt a bit by this time.

Picture 14
Almost there...

Picture 15
And, I made it! My time was 2:36:52, the time over my head is the time since the race started, but it was 20 minutes later by the time I passed the start line. That's what you get with 8000+ runners.
