Throwback Thursday - My Oldest Running Photo

Someone asked me the other day what my oldest running photo was. I have this one from 1982...

Me finishing the 1982 Wally Hayward Half Marathon.

Nice photo! I know there's a photo somewhere of me and a friend running our very first 5 k fun run when we were 10 (we're 36 now), but just can't find it. I've looked everywhere - wish I can find it!

I have not been running anywhere near as long as you. My oldest running photo would be from around 2000. I was amazed when I first saw running photos of me because I don't run!!

Great one! If only I had started taking running pictures of myself sooner. I didn't know it would turn into a lifelong hobby!

That's terrific!

What a great photo, Johann! I'm a newbie, so my oldest running pic is from 2 years ago.

Wow. I haven't been running very long, my oldest photo is probably from 2006

1982 doesn't seem that long ago but when you look at that photo it certainly looks like it was.

I was only 9 in 1982! My first race and first running photo was in 2008 - a 5K 6 months after I had my daughter! Yours is much more cool. :)

Great memory! My oldest running photo is from 1986 but I have photos when I played rugby in early 70s.

I wasn't even alive then! :) But great photo! The oldest one of me is probably one from a high school XC race hanging at my parents house.

I never ran till 4 years ago so none of my photos are very old. :-)
