The image captures the excitement and energy of the marathon that took place through the bustling streets of Liverpool. Huge crowds have gathered to watch as athletes push themselves to their limits, running a grueling 26-mile race.
In an era before televised sports events, this photograph offers a rare glimpse into the historical significance of athletic competitions. The spectators lining the streets are dressed in period-appropriate attire, adding an extra layer of authenticity to this snapshot from nearly a century ago.
