Agree with above, tell us more about MDS. My biggest fear would be getting lost, as I imagine I would be at the back. Massive incentive to keep going though!
Very nice. The first set of pics almost makes me want to do my runs very early in the morning. Almost.
I don't often take a camera on a run, unless I'm on holiday. 4.5 miles continuous uphill run from my hotel the other week gets you a nice view over Sorrento and the Bay of Naples:
The MDS was the toughest thing I've ever done but an amazing experience.Unfortunately I was so badly dehydrated by day 4 that I had to have an IV drip to restore my fluid levels. It took eight bags of saline solution to get me back to normal levels by which time I'd missed the cut-off and had to pull out of the race - that's why there are no photos of me at the finish line!! But I'm planning to go back in 2012 to finish the unfinished business!
Nice pictures of Sorrento. We were there a few years ago. Did you visit Pompeii? What an incredible place - just like stepping back in time.
Chris - Pompei was the one place we didn't go to. Walked up Vesuvius, visited Capri, Positano... and had a fantastic run back to Sorrento from the Amalfi coast. Stunning. Good luck with MDS!
Right, that's me packing my camera on my next LSR.
Not sure they'll compare to the great ones already posted, but I've always thought I should take my camera to record the changing seasons, if nothing else.
Great pics, I never really take a camera but I might consider it, although I never like to stop mid run but with pics like those it looks to be worth it. Great looking pooch too. I did soem early morning runs in Cyprus a few weeks back but i'd need a water proof case for the camera due to the sweat! even at 6.30am it was very humid.
I use a Canon Ixus 130 which is very light and compact so I hardly notice I'm carrying it - and the weight of the camera in one hand is balanced out by the water bottle (for the dog) that I carry in the other!!
Ooh, I love pictures of the great outdoors at times and places most people never get to see. I've been taking piccies since 2006 on the running events and captured some amazing views at home and abroad. My Panasonic Lumix has given amazing service but it's just about given up now after sweat & rain contamination over the years and being dropped a few times. I'm going to treat myself to a more up-to-date version very soon.

Makes you grateful for the simple things dunnit.
Will make an effort next time so we can keep this thread going
I've started taking photos on my runs as well but I only have a crap iPhone camera so they dont look that great
Those photos are amazing! How the hell do you train for MDS? I've always wanted to do it!

Love the MDS ones aswell, looks like a unique insight!
How did you do in the MDS itself?

I wish my morning run could be along a beach like yours Superglue...
Milton Keynes (although nice in places) isn't that picturesque!!
Lovely pics.
I take it these are interval sessions though, because otherwise that's a lot of rests in a training run
