Brooklyn Marathon

Got to play photo assistant to celebrity pro photographer James Farrell of Warpt Photo fame this weekend on one of his assignments for Runner's World magazine. We covered the first annual Brooklyn Marathon held in Prospect Park. My job duties included holding coffee, throwing leaves, verbal sparring unruly Brooklyn-ites that dared mess with James' "art", and camera caddying.

Top quotes of the event:

"I'm gonna win dis' fuckin' race, you should be taken' my pitcha!"

-Marathon contestant, obviously local, to James and I.

"Watch where you goin' Romeo!"

-Marathon contestant after colliding with a random guy walking with his girlfriend on course.

"I can't believe I fuckin' created dis!"

-Marathon organizer talking to himself

"I'm doing dis' for nine eleven.."

-Elder marathon contestant repeated this 3 times over the course of the race to us and even stopped mid-marathon to show us the back of his shirt that indeed read This is for 9/11.

James and the winner.

Profile on Andy

People, take note of Andy and his attitude towards our sport. This is the direction we should be going, natural features in the side and backcountry, not aerials. What Andy, Ike, Pollard, Wiegand, and the rest of the Nimbus Crew have done with their film company Nimbus is the epitome of progression. It's too bad that not everyone gets a chance to ski with Andy Mahre at his home mountain of White Pass in Washington at least once in their lifetime.

Last year I finally made it up to White Pass for a few days and put together this edit. Riders include: Andy Mahre, Jeff Harrison, and Ike Smith.
