My grandfather got a super8 camera when I was a kid, and filmed us in all sorts of situations. Waving at the camera, for me, was irrepressible too! What's up with that?
Yes, P, some people just can't be stopped. Actually --wait!--on closer inspection these aren't people: this looks like an annual turkey run. Run turkeys before it's too late!
Kathy, it's Lower Arroyo Park in Pasadena. The runners are heading south from the Colorado Street Bridge near the La Loma Bridge. I'm not familiar with CV Park...?
They are running because the storm is coming.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great shot!

ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard there was a bear loose in Pasadena! Cool photo; makes me want to stay in bed though.
ReplyDeleteHe's waving goodby because Petrea stopped running.
ReplyDeleteChased by the clouds, Vanda. A soCal rarity.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Laurie. You know the waving kid makes it!
I don't know Elaine, but I was thrilled when he waived and that I got it. There's about a year-long delay on my SP-350.
As cool as it gets here, Katie, we can rarely call it cold. But the couple of days of rain we had this week were real downpours, not just sprinkles.
AH, I never started.
First thought, Monty Python:
ReplyDeleteRUN AWAY!!!
^_^
What a great shot Petrea! My daughter runs there every Saturday with her cross country team. :-)

They're being chased by arrow wilding suburbanites. The boy's raised hand is a gesture of retreat and surrender.
ReplyDeleteIrrepressible.
ReplyDeleteThe sound of pale hams slapping in the dawn.
The hufn-'n'-puff of executive determination.
Irrepressible.
For those moments when you should be alone, but alas ...
Irrepressible.
The new fragrance. Wherever fine running apparel is sold.
Phew I'm exhausted just watching them. I just saw your piece about your Dad. I left a comment.
ReplyDeleteIs that CV park? My daughter used to run there with cross country. Such a pure but brutal sport...
ReplyDeleteJust looking at it makes me feel tired!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind thoughts!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is much too hot here today to be running but I guess the weather is cooler there!!!!
Running off all those extra Thanksgiving Day calories...
ReplyDeleteIt's like Zen Saturday out here.

Hey, thank you all. This is just too fun.
