Love those. Here's my favorite. Being passed at mile 17 by a 70 year old speedwalker. Awesome!

 

 

 

I'm sorry but I LOVE this one!  It reminds of the opening scene of Office Space when they're in a traffic jam getting passed by an old guy using a walker

All right--one last attempt at pics from my last tri. I converted them to jpeg format so maybe this will work. These aren't the worst--I just don't keep anything worse than this. I always look like a zombie or axe murderer when I run. At least this looks like a fairly fast-moving zombie/axe murderer.  The finish photo is "worst" considering this is the only race I've won in about 20 years. As I recall, I usually looked pretty happy  to win--can't figure out what my problem is here; I didn't feel THAT bad!

completing my  first 70.3 in my first year of triathlon, I approached the finish they hold up the finishing tape and yell at me to raise my hands up for the finish line picture. I do, thinking that it will be a great picture and seeing as it was my first "big" race I fully intended to buy it. The fateful day arrived - the pictures are ready. Full of anticipation and my credit card in hand I open this....

 

 

Damn, looks like I have to go next year to try and get a better picture (and MUCH better time!)

I almost forgot about this one. This is me looking at my sunglasses that have been crushed into pieces due to a fellow racer parking his bike on top of my neatly laid out transition area.

Held out to the end eh.

We have 9 and 11 year old sisters here that beat me every race, early season they passed me on the bike, now they get me on the run....

Maybe I'll finish before them next year (of course, they will still beat me since they start way after I do).

That is awesome.  I had a 64 year old women pass me on the run the other day.  I tried to keep up with her but just couldn't.  After it was over I was speaking with her in the transition area and found out she is ranked No.1 nationally in her AG.  So if I had to get my arse kick by a 64 year old women, I'm glad it was the fastest 64 year old women in the country!

While I think the one you started with of the senior lady checking out your, er, "donkey," is still fabulous, the puker in CoJ still wins.

I'm hoping he posts it here!

It's what I've been saying personified.

If you puke after the finish line, you still had more to give
If you puke prior to the finish line, you went too hard.
You are aiming to puke ON the finish line.

So I posted a different one in yesterday's thread but here is another shot of me fighting with a diaphragm cramp in last month's Eagleman.

I know this is an old thread, but it brought me many minutes of stifled laughter at my desk, so I'll add my contribution.

I actually submitted this to uglyracepics.tumblr.com. (not letting me link directly?). My husband and the race photog got the same picture within a few seconds and a few feet of each other. The official pic has me playing an imaginary piano while running sideways and sleeping.

"Nothing up my sleeve" or "I can do this with my eyes closed".  But I think the pink swim cap is the topper (pun intended).

One of the best parts of this thread is the contrast between peoples avitar photo and their real life "worst race pics"

Ok....I swore I wasn't going to post this one but I guess I like self deprecating. Quads were locked up the whole run.... LOL!

The first 1/4 mile of my first marathon I twisted my ankle, fell and busted my arse. I got up and could not walk....so I ran....26 miles. This is my foot the next day.
