Cambridge University Women's Rugby Versus Swansea

 Yesterday's Women's Rugby match against Swansea was held up for 90 minutes after a very early injury that required an ambulance to be called, so the light was pretty low by the end and required the Floodlights. There was also intermittent rain! However, it was a good game which Cambridge Women won easily. Lots of action to photograph,

CRUFC versus Ealing

 As Chris was away for yesterday's match, I went along to photograph CRUFC's match against Ealing, a fully professional team. The result was as expected (17-52) but Cambridge managed three tries and fought hard.

Marathon Charities

As usual, there were lots of runners supporting various charities - the largest contingent was from Alzheimer's Research UK. The ladies with the toilets were raising money to replace outdated school facilities in Newport. Not sure about the Chicken or the Glitterball.

Cambridge Marathon Main Runners

15,000 people took part in the Cambridge Half Marathon on Sunday in very overcast conditions. Here a few shots of the leading group (Nick, 2nd here, was the final winner) and then as the runners come up the Barton Road from Cambridge - a real stream of humanity.

Cambridge III v North Walsham II

 Yesterday's match was a bit of a challenge for CRUFC's third team playing a fairly local second team - ended up 10-52. It was also a challenge for me as my 100-400 telephoto has not yet dried out so I was using a shorter zoom and one not designed for sports/nature and they were playing on a pitch with a metal barrier all down one side.
