WOW! I am so humbled. I just noticed my photo in the upper right corner and almost fell out of my chair. This is a great honor after seeing all of the great photos that have been POTW. Thanks everyone!

Excellent photo. By the way, did it hurt when the runner ran over you?

i am actually laying face down on the track shooting with a lot of lens from well past the finish line. I snapped this one shot and had 13 seconds to right myself and shoot the same hurdler as he cleared the final hurdle and cross the finish line as the winner of the Regional Meet. My only wish is that it was not over 90' that day as you can see quite a bit of heat coming off the track in the photo. If it was a crisp clear 60' day I could have got a cleaner shot.

Thanks everyone.

I think because it was 90 it was a better shot. Well done!
