In the two years I worked for the Mississauga News I photographed all manner of local community news stories from "grip and grin" award presentations to festivals in the park, wedding anniversaries to dance recitals, local celebrities to ribbon cuttings and all manner of sports from amateur to professional. The short tenure of working for the paper gave me a wealth of experience due to this variety. This image was the start of a marathon race held in Mississauga.
