EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print captured during the 1980 Moscow Olympics, we witness a thrilling moment in athletics history. The Grand Arena of the Central Lenin Stadium is electrified as four incredible athletes compete for glory in the Men's 1500m Final. Representing Great Britain are three legends: Sebastian Coe, Steve Ovett, and Steve Cram. As Jurgen Straub of East Germany takes an early lead, it becomes clear that this race will be fiercely contested. With determination etched on their faces, Coe (254) and Ovett (279) trail closely behind Straub (338), while Cram patiently waits for his opportunity to strike. Andreas Busse (296) of East Germany can also be seen on the far left, pushing himself to keep up with these exceptional runners. Ultimately, it is Sebastian Coe who emerges triumphant from this intense battle of endurance and speed. His relentless drive propels him across the finish line first, securing him the gold medal. Behind him, Jurgen Straub claims second place while Steve Ovett settles for third. This photograph immortalizes a historic moment when these extraordinary athletes pushed themselves to their limits in pursuit of Olympic glory. Their dedication and unwavering spirit serve as an inspiration to aspiring athletes around the world even today.
