A group of runners jogs down a sunlit street. Most of the runners are wearing athletic gear such as tank tops, shorts, and running shoes. Some hold water bottles, and a few are smiling as they run. In the background, there is a white building with a sign that reads "Better Half Coffee Bar & Café" partially visible behind the trees and other runners.
