The Petrified Pootle

Fri 24th October 2025

A smiling woman dressed in a skeleton-themed running shirt and blue visor holds up a medal in one hand. She wears bib number 60 and stands outdoors on a wet surface. There are other runners in the background, one wearing a pink jacket, on a rainy day. Two women in outdoor athletic gear stand together, smiling and looking at a phone. One wears a blue jacket and gray headband, while the other is in dark attire with a hood. Both have race numbers pinned to their shorts. Snow and greenery are in the background. A man wearing a blue vest and green gloves is running on a muddy trail, giving a thumbs-up with both hands. He is smiling, and there is a race number (133) attached to his shorts. The background features trees and patches of snow.
