From the sun and heat of Yakima in Eastern Washington one Saturday, to the drizzle and gray of West Seattle's Lincoln Park, the seasons they are a changin'.  Autumn starts on the 22nd but it seemed to have to come early in Seattle.  On Saturday morning, September 19th, the SPU men and women ran well at the big 2009 University of Washington Sundodger Invitational.  My telephoto lens could not capture the huge number of runners toeing the start line at these big races.  Photographing SPU runners in the crowd was a challenge as all my gear was wrapped in plastic. But the pictures tell the tale of well run races. Well done Falcons!
