Glenn, I just reviewed your digital images from last year again. Nice work. Scott did a great job again this year. It was frustrating trying to follow the "live" webcast which must have been managed by Pheidippides himself. Ben

great photos. I have tried the race 2 times (2003 and 2004) both failed. This inspires me to go for it again.
Again congratulations

Incredible pictures Glenn!! You captured both the history and urbanity of the place along with the emotions of the race. Seriously awesome.
*I had to doublecheck the dog pic - haha!

Awesome pictures Glenn. Hope to read a review of the race soon, maybe in ultrarunning mag.

We are so proud of Scott representing the U.S. in this world event. These photos really capture the feel and spirit of the race. Thanks so much. We all wish we could have been there and this is the next best thing.
