Yes, I should have mentioned. The final transition is maybe 100 metres from the finish line. Most of them still had their bike shoes on as well. I wouldn't run on anything harder than sand with those things on. > Each gallery features really good photos.

Some of them were able to put on a good sprint and others were only able to manage a hobble. The more exhausted / sore someone was, the bigger the cheer from the crowd. The atmosphere was really good and it was visibly lifting the competitors' spirits. BTW I just changed the photo gallery template so the images are shown a lot larger. If you go back for another look you may need to clear your cache or the pics will look crappy (more so than usual;).
