This year's Riverbank Rollick took place on a beautiful sunny Sunday morning this year. It may have been a little nippy waiting around for the start . .

 

 . . but I'm sure that once the runners got under way it won't have taken them long to warm up . . not quite so easy when standing still to take photos but it was the sort of day when you were glad to be out there in the fresh sunshine . .

Once the race had started I managed to get across to the riverbank close to Littleton-on-Severn to take photos of the early runners making their way towards the old suspension bridge . .

 

 . . but after 15 minutes got back into my car to return to Race HQ so that I could be at the finish before the leading runners . .

 

 . . use the buttons to the left (you'll need to scroll up a bit now) or below to find photos from before the race, of the start, and on the riverbank and at the finish . . clicking on any of the photos should open up a larger image  . .
