It was strange to see a bunch of Santas running on a green grass hiding under their umbrellas from the rain, but this wasn’t the best view of the day. A rainbow, dogs with antlers and lots of smiles weren’t that either. What excited us most were a couple of Santas who decided to show us the coolest way to cross the finish line. I doubt I’ll ever see any other Santa doing that on purpose at least once, but they have done it twice with apparent pleasure. Truth told they had to repeat this as the official photographer didn’t notice them the first time and asked them to do it again. Ah, those official photographers!

We snapped these guys twice and from two different angles, here are our precious shots for your viewing pleasure. The rest of the photos can be seen on our flickr account – there were no bibs, so there’s no way to search for your photos other than to browse through them all. We organised them in chronological order so hopefully it won’t take long for you to find a couple of snaps of yourselves. Well done everyone!
