well……. kind of. you've seen some of the shots i've taken for the marathons, triathlons and trail races. i'm working for a guy named greg sadler, at sadler shots, who shoots all the races for a michigan company called running fit. they deal with running gear and such…. anyways, greg submitted some photos of his and mine to a small magazine/flyer called michigan sport & fitness. his made the september cover. and mine, below, made the october cover.
the credit inside only says "sadler shots" but that's ok, i know it's mine.
running fit puts on these 4 trail races a year called "dances with dirt. there's actually 5 races going on at the same time. a 5k, 10k, full marathon (26.something miles), a 50 mile relay (5 member teams) and finally a 50 mile ultra in which the runner does the whole 50 miles. the picture above is on the 50 mile relay/50 mile ultra course. the runners actually had to run into the lake and then along the shore line, in the water the whole time, for about 300 yards. i stood out in the lake about 30 feet and shot the runners as they went by. the lake was shallow for quite a ways out. i love doing these kind of shoots, i'm outdoors all day, hiking in the woods and taking pictures. can't get any better.
and now it's time for the second annual "daily catalog intake" count. last year i got started with the idea kinda late, so i didn't get a full count. this time i started with the first catalog that had a christmas theme. so, without further ado…

so, that puts the dci count at seven so far. stay tuned for updates.
