Image depicts male runners finishing the 100-yard dash, most likely as part of a "Field Day" organized by the Draper Corporation for Draper Corporation employees. While the runner in the center with his arms raised may appear to be the winner, the presumed winner on the far left has already crossed the finish line. Two more runners can be seen. A large crowd of spectators watches from the side of the course on the left. The runner in the center appears to be the same man seen in Item 969, in this folder, the finish of the relay race. 25 x 20.25 cm.
