London Marathon - Didache & overbeyond

[Didache]

Hi all

Today I (Didache) met up with Tom (overbeyond) for a day's shooting in London. It was marathon day with 35,000 runners taking to the streets. It really was a fabulous day. The weather was glorious and there was a real festival atmosphere everywhere. It was one of the best day's shooting I can remember.

Tom will add some more pictures (as will I) so do check back.

I wanted to start though with just one image. It's a special one.

The runners all run for their chosen charity. The guy here is running for "Help for Heroes" which is a charity dedicated to helping British servicemen injured in Iraq or Afghanistan.

Imagine having your leg blown off over there, and then coming home and running a marathon on crutches. This really is a hero.

So, just him. The other images can wait.

Cheers
Mike
