Last Saturday I ran in a 15k race locally. Just this evening I was talking to the race director and she told me that just after the first 3 or 4 runners finished a couple drove up and asked if they could sit by the finish line and cheer the runners in as their daughter was running in the race. The answer was obviously "yes" because for these small local events you need every body you can get to provide "crowd support" at the finish line. So they parked, pulled a couple of folding chairs out of their car and sat by the finish line encouraging the finishers.
My friend the race director pulled out her point and shoot to get photos of the runners as they crossed the line. "Smile, it's a Kodak moment!" she would shout and "No Fuji film in this camera!" The guy seemed to appreciate this but my friend didn't think much about it...until after the race when she found out he was the CEO of Kodak. -- Mark Roberts www.robertstech.com - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
