Tue 20th October 2026

Two women stand outdoors with a young child. One woman in a blue shirt is holding the child, who is wearing a yellow jacket. The other woman is dressed in a Halloween costume with face paint, an orange and black outfit, and a race bib. All are smiling. A man is running on a muddy trail in a forest. He is wearing a black outfit, green gloves, and a blue hydration pack. The number 133 is on his shorts. He smiles and gives thumbs-up with both hands. Snow is scattered on the ground and trees are in the background. A person in a yellow shirt and blue vest sits on grass, smiling widely while holding up two medals. They are wearing a blue and yellow cap, earphones, and have a race bib attached to their shorts. A child is partially visible beside them.
