The Running of the Bulls...ah I mean Bix 7

On July 29th at 8am was the running of the 32nd Bix 7. 20,000 people run or walk past my house on this hilly 7 mile course. I'm just after the 1 mile mark so people are just getting going and look pretty pleased with them selves...
I'm also just after the 6 mile mark coming back so you see the pained looks and the red or worse gray faces.
Its really a site to see with all the people running down the street in the neighbour hood.
Then three hours after it starts its over. the last walker drags themselves down the hill to victory.A hour later the clean up crew comes thru and its like nothing ever happened...
