the river

as I mentioned in my previous post from the Forget the PR race director Rob Powell works to create a challenging course, not just to torture the runners, but to give them an even greater a sense of accomplishment (than just running 17-30 miles) when they cross the finish line. i made this photograph looking down from a beautiful covered bridge while the runners battled the ice cold currents of the river (many viewed it as a refreshing ice bath to numb the pain from the miles before).
