Not convinced this is very successful - i think you've attempted too much, really. Keeping sme definition in the corwn, bridge, buildings and runners serves no purpose that I can see, and has forced you to over-expose the road, where the sunlight might have made interesting textures, especially with the shapes of the runners set against it. however, even then there isn't really any separation of the figures, either from each other or from the dark background. You finish with a set of almost distinct figures, clumped together, against an over-exposed background, and that is no recipe for success.

I think it would be more interesting if you caught them running towards you to show the sun on them. That would up some of those colors!

Hard to rate this one. I am definitely digging th econtrast between the road and the runners, but the runners could use more highlights to really make this one stand out... Nice overall.
