The background is a light blue hue. A group of athletes in wetsuits and red swim caps stands at the edge of a body of water, preparing for a race. Trees and a building are visible in the background under a clear sky. A person wearing a blue swim cap and black wetsuit stands near a large blue inflatable buoy, smiling with arms raised. They appear to be outdoors by a body of water under a clear sky.
