I grew up in an era where young ladies didn't even perspire. The sight of Jessica running in her full powers is just inspiring. Your photos tell her story of persisting well. Nicely done.

Thank you for the comments. I am very proud of her. She did not run meters,,,she ran miles. I can't imagine doing that. I'm not sure how she ranked but it was in the top 10.

Well done Jessica !!! You can only do your best, and I'm sure you did that admirably. Your Mum & Dad must be so proud of you. And well done Dad...those shots are just great.

First off congrats to your daughter on a good race. I like the second shot with the shallow depth of field for me it enhances her strength and determination to stay ahead. Heading to a "CC" race today for the first time so I hope my shots come out as nice as yours.
