Almería half marathon. 30th January 2006

[Nigel]

Many thanks from me, too. It was a brilliant weekend, of which more later, no doubt. The thrill of running down the ramp into a major stadium for the finish of an international event (just a few metres behind Haile Gabreselassie) will stay with me for a very long time.

Thank you too, for very kindly forwarding the CD of race photos, which are great. Meanwhile, I have seen that there are also official race photos at this page: http://www.todofondo.com/medioalmeria/ under 'solicita tu foto'. I've attached the thumbnails here, with me and Ash, Suzie, Antonio and Andy. Sorry - there does not seem to be one of the Seafront Plodder up there yet, although here is an action shot out on the course instead. As you can see, he's still in the lead in the tightly fought run-up to the Mediterranean Stadium at this point.

Anyway, I tried to order a JPG of my finish photo from that site (my race number was 915) but it seems to need a bank transfer for 4 Euro. I don't think that will work easily from the UK, but a credit card payment would be no problem. Do you have any suggestions on how to arrange that, please, Antonio ?

Kind regards and many thanks again
Nigel
