EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense atmosphere of the Men's 5000m final at the 1972 Munich Olympics. The image showcases Great Britain's Ian Stewart, Belgium's Emiel Puttemans, and USA's Steve Prefontaine battling it out on the track in Olympiastadion, Munich, West Germany. In this historic race, Ian Stewart (309) can be seen leading the pack with determination etched on his face. His impressive speed and endurance are evident as he strives to secure a place on the podium. Trailing closely behind him is Emiel Puttemans (61), representing Belgium. With unwavering focus and strength, Puttemans pushes himself to keep up with Stewart. Meanwhile, Steve Prefontaine (1005) from the United States demonstrates his exceptional athleticism as he fights for a top position in this highly competitive event. Despite their remarkable efforts, these three talented athletes would ultimately finish just shy of claiming gold. Ian Stewart would go on to claim bronze while Prefontaine narrowly missed out on a medal by finishing fourth and Puttemans secured fifth place. This photograph serves as a timeless reminder of their incredible performances during one of sports' most prestigious events. Colorsport Images has expertly captured this iconic moment in Olympic history through their lens, allowing us to relive the excitement and passion that unfolded within those hallowed grounds over four decades ago.
