Three triangular medals with blue ribbons displaying "Phoenix Running" are laid out on a wooden surface. Each medal features a phoenix graphic above the text. A group of runners, smiling and jubilant, stands beneath a "Phoenix Running" tent, showcasing their medals. They are dressed in colorful athletic gear, some wearing tutus and vibrant accessories, with trees providing shade in the background. A group of people in athletic gear are gathered outside "The Weir" pub on a sunny day. Some are sitting at picnic tables, while others stand and chat. In the background, there are more people, trees, and parts of the pub building. The atmosphere is casual and lively. A large group of runners, both men and women, are starting a race on a tree-lined path. They are wearing athletic gear with visible bib numbers. The atmosphere is energetic as they begin their run in a marathon event. The sky is overcast, and trees can be seen in the background. A group of 17 runners pose together outdoors on a sunny day. They are wearing athletic gear, some with medals around their necks. Trees and a river are visible in the background, adding to the scenic setting. All the runners appear to be in high spirits.
