Wow, up until a few hours ago, iRunfar’s first contest was a complete and total flop. However, a last minute surge from readers has left us with plenty of quality shots of DC-area trails. In fact, it was quite difficult choosing the 10 finalists. Y’all can put down your cameras now and get to voting for your favorite DC-area trail photos.
As a reminder, iRunFar is holding a contest for the best photos of DC-area trails with the three winning photos earning their photographers Pacer’s gift certificates and a chance at publication in a national running magazine. (See more prize info.) We’ve posted the pictures without reference to the photographer to keep this focused on the best photos, rather than the photographer. iRunFar will add photographers’ names to the photos after the contest is over. Read on to see the finalists.
Please look at all the photos before voting… no one at iRunFar is a programmer so the poll is not displayed in random order as it should be. Now go vote for any 3 photos in the upper poll to the right. While the poll will allow you to vote for more than three photos we are relying on the honor system here – be honorable.
