Bad race pics go here!

[joenali]

This is me on a hill nearing the finish line at a half. My friend was pacing me. I actually PRd by about two minutes. This course is nothing but hills! My fat ass wanted to die!

This is mile 9 of 10 where I was probably cursing myself for thinking running so far was a good idea.

This is crossing the finish line at my first half. I was so excited despite the look on my face. I was hoping I would get an awesome finish line pic for this race but this is what I looked like and no way.

This is just one example of a million where I look like this.  Or my legs look like they're caving in.

Oh my god.  You said you were sobbing, and I was picturing like some tears leaking out with a side of exaggeration.

Nope.  SOBBING.  This picture is amazing.  so many feels!

I give you my leap fail from my first 10k...




I really wish I had access to my mom's photo collection.  She has some amazingly bad/funny ones from horse stuff.  Like the time I had to pee by the side of the trail and she TOOK MY DAMN PICTURE.   You can't see anything, but the look on my face.  omg. 

[wambam]

LOL wawa - zero exaggeration. I ugly cried. I can't even begin to imagine what I'll do at the finish line of the full.

Sprint triathlon. My finish photo from this race is actually good. I hate how weak I look here, I had a really good race!

[G22]

The best and hardest 5k of my life, which is why I look like I want to die.

[kams]

These are great. I have tons, but I never buy the bad ones! I'll have to see if I can find one buried somewhere.

Ha.  Ha ha.  Take your pick. I'll just share a couple of winners. Sorry the pictures of my misery are so huge.

A half last fall after my back gave up at mile 6.  Just photoshop in a walker and I could be your grandmother.




Same race in 2014 2 days post-food poisoning.  I literally wanted to put my hand up in front of the camera and say "stop taking pictures"!  This was like mile 9 or something.  It was a long day.

I kind of love this, but hate it at the same time. Rocking the double chin.

The vast majority of these are really not that bad!

I don't have any of my bad ones handy. I tend not to keep them! Just so y'all don't think I'm super vain by posting in the favorite race pics post but not this one!

Mile 23 MCM. Misery.

This is me too. I'll do some digging. I love the fact that we work hard & celebrate but also don't take ourselves too seriously.
