Pete Thompson, Photographer,

Description

This outdoor action photograph captures two women participating in a city marathon, shot by photographer Pete Thompson. The runners are in mid-stride on an urban street lined with traditional buildings under a clear blue sky. The leading runner wears a light-colored athletic tank top, dark leggings, sunglasses, and a prominent race bib with the number 58308, while holding a red phone. Beside her, a second runner wears a yellow t-shirt with printed text, a yellow hair bow, and a race bib numbered 64606. Both athletes wear black running belt pouches around their waists. Direct sunlight casts sharp shadows across their bodies, highlighting the motion and intensity of the race against the blurred city background.
