Marathon movie

I had hoped to get some video shot last year and put together a little movie of our race at the Memorial Marathon. However, the bad weather kept that from happening. I'm really sorry we couldn't get that done, since that was our last opportunity to get one made with Thais.

I want to try again this year though. Lyndsey is going to try to shoot some video with my camera and we'll see what we can get. Maybe Sherry can shoot some too. Obviously we'd like to get as much video of our family participating as we can, but that will be a challenge with over 20,000 people running. But even some short snatches can be incorporated with other shots of the the event, so I'm optimistic that we can get enough to put something together.

If you have a digital camera, it almost certainly will shoot video. This is awfully late, but if any of you have a chance, it would be great to shoot a couple of short bits of you training. Just something like a shot of the road/trail where you're running and you coming into view then running by the camera. Or a shot of you running off into the distance. Any little bits like this could be used in a movie. Here's a real short example I shot w/my iPhone of Ross during one of our runs by the Oklahoma River.

If we can't get enough shot to make something worthwhile, I can save everything and then try to get some more the next time we're running together...here, or maybe SLC next year and combine it all into a single movie.
