EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Colorsport's talented photographer Andrew Cowie, we are transported back to the electrifying atmosphere of the 1980 Moscow Olympics. The image showcases Sonia Lannaman, a remarkable British athlete competing in the Women's 100m Semi-Finals Heat Two. As our eyes focus on the grand arena of the Central Lenin Stadium in Moscow, Soviet Union, we can almost feel the anticipation and tension that filled the air during this iconic sporting event. Sonia Lannaman stands poised at her starting block, ready to give her all in pursuit of Olympic glory. With determination etched across her face and an unwavering spirit burning within her, Lannaman bursts forward with explosive speed as soon as that starting gun fires. Every muscle in her body propels her forward towards victory. However, despite showcasing incredible skill and dedication throughout her race, fate had different plans for Lannaman on this particular day. As she crosses the finish line amidst fierce competition from other athletes around the world, she lands fifth place - narrowly missing out on qualifying for the final round. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of both triumphs and setbacks faced by athletes on their journey towards greatness. It encapsulates not only Lannaman's valiant effort but also represents countless untold stories behind each competitor who graced these hallowed grounds during those memorable games in Moscow.
