I like the composition and the distance between the spectators and the runners which bring some depth to the image.

Comments
Yet again I went for the favorite of combining an automatic toning (Exposure +0.03, Contrast +6, Highlights -87, Shadows +61, Whites +14 and Blacks -24) with the Polaroid 665 Negative HC (Affinity) film emulation. The latter provides interestingly a substantial punch to the image in comparison to only applying the toning.
