Corniche runners club, a photo from Beyrouth, Ouest

Photographer's Note

A good running spot for me must contain: a wide traffic free path. Good views. Good climate. Good array of radio stations and it has to have some distance min 5km. The Corniche has all that.

In the back you see the 3000m high Mount Lebanon. Lebanon means White Peaks in Aramaic, an old language still spoken there. On the left you see the Beirut Marathon sign. The Corniche is actually part of the 10k and marathon held every November. It's a very well organized warm and quite hilly marathon.

This is also part of my theme My Mizuno's and me.

Hi Gilbert,

I knew Libanon through war and violence pictures.
This time, your shot and note give me another feelings about this beautiful country.
Pretty place to spent holidays too !
Very good POV and great sharpness.
Thanks for sharing

Hi Gilbert
Very nice light and details. The signs are interesting too and illustrate very well what your photo is about.
