You had to put up with the heat and I battled with my camera because of the strong sunshine. So some photos are bad!
The race instructions asked you to add a large thick red cross across your race number if you don't want your photos published. However, I did not see any runners that had a large thick red cross across their race number.
Please e-mail me if this is not the case.

The photos at 6.5M were taken near to Pewsey Downs Car Park (where checkpoint 2 is) and the photos at 17.2M/30.4M were taken near to Gravel Hill Car Park. Technical error: I goofed as I arranged for the EXIF information and the flickr tags for frames 413 to 837 to say they were taken at Gravel Hill whereas they were taken at Pewsey Downs.
