Long time no update! Plenty going on the past few weeks and so much to bring you all up to speed on. Last weekend I had the pleasure of flying to Atlanta as a photographer for Reebok’s Spartan Race. In case you are unfamiliar, these races are a grueling obstacle course/run designed to promote teamwork and test your physical ability. I love traveling to shoot these events because they’re fun, outside and my access to make great images has no limits. There are so many inspiring people racing in these events such as paraplegic Michael Mills and triple amputee Todd Love. Also, when part of your job description includes photographing Alicia Keys how could you go wrong? Have a look at some of the images I made below.

Spartan Race would have been way too intense for me! lol But looks like it was fun for the participants. Great pictures, as well.
Good stuff, Ryan! I shot a Rugged Maniac (mud run, but much less intense than Spartan Races) last July and enjoy shooting these events: http://jerseystylephotography.wordpress.com/2013/07/15/there-will-be-mud/
That said, I’m doing Spartan Race NJ this September. AROO!
