Greetings from the Critique Club!

This is a great idea. The composition (centered) is perfect for this type of poster. Your idea matches well with your text, and your flash has obviously done it's job well, as the lighting and exposure are nice.

Honestly, I agree with some of the comment below about the arrows. I admit that it is nice to have something there to break up the plain composition, but the arrows confuse me. Why are they there? Why do they curve the way they do, and why do they point backwords? Why does one of them cover up the runner's hand? (By the way - his hands are not in correct position for the starting of a race.)

Overall, this is a strong image and a strong quote.

Good work - I'd guess that this is quite early in the game, from the cleanliness of those white shorts, but it has a real feel of the driven-into-the-ground exhaustion of the end of a game, when things almost grind to a halt like boxers who've beaten each other to a standstill. If only it weren't for the guy half hidden behind the no. 17 it'd be a great shot.
