No Finish Line - the Prince


Some shots taken at the prize giving. I'm really not sure of who won what but the lady in the last photo, when she won her section was so emotional and happy about it - so me too.

Participants came from all over - Scotland, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Poland. The 24-hour run was won by an Irishman who covered 248 kilometres in 24 hours. The overall winner - over the 8 days - clocked up 922 kilometres - he was from Norway.

H.S.H.Prince Albert II was obviously having a great time, relaxed and thoroughly enjoying the event which as you know raised a lot of money for needy children around the world.

It strikes me as unusual to see royalty out and around in casual clothes.

Hob Nobbing with the Royals now, Jilly? Great close-up. Seems odd that he is of his age as I recall the images and movies of his late mother!

He, like all of us, has aged.

He looks so comfortable in his own skin ... and with the people around him.

Is he always this accessible???

What a great event and you captured it all so beautifully Jilly. The Prince should hire you as a PR photographer!

I know you have a great zoom on your camera Jilly but it really feels like we're next to him!

Congratulations to the winners and to all who contributed to raising funds for needy children.
