Hi Jeanne, thanks for visiting my blog and thanks for helping me to identify the plant (Liatris). :-)

Looks like great scenery for that Dam race.

Your town seems to have so many fun races!! Racing and taking pics of flowers--life is good!

It really was very pretty! I've run this same venue with Baltimore Road Runners for their Women's Distance Festival, their Valentine's Day 4-Miler and for one of their Grand Prix series races, but this is the first time the race route has gone out as far as That Dam. I'd never seen That Dam before. In fact, this race was run to celebrate the road reopening after being closed for a long period of time for Dam repairs.

They had cute That Dam Race! mugs for award winners (Not for me. I was LAST in this race. I think I'd have been last even if I had not been taking pictures, because the pack left me behind VERY early on. It was an 8-miler: 4 miles out, 4 miles back.) And they even had sleeveless race t-shirts, although mine is HUGE on me.

I especially like the last one with the lens flares like success beaming down on each runner. Your blog keeps me interested in taking pictures!

Great pictures, *Jeanne*. With those legs, the runners in the last picture look fast just standing still.
