Many people think running a marathon is not good for your body. Many people think marathon runners are a bit crazy. My book 'face the distance' proves them wrong!

I set up a studio flash right after the finishing line of some nice winter marathons here in the Netherlands. I then asked runners who crossed the line to pose for me in a comfortable chair.

What you get is a stunning and intense portrait of a tired but proud athlete. In most faces you feel the energy of the accomplishment.

The book is for sale of course...
