This layout is incredible. The time in the beginning caught my eye immediately and the interactive image was engaging. Having audio online would be awesome. I was having trouble loading it but I heard a story and it was so much more engaging to hear her voice and emotion rather than read it.

The fact that the image had the runners named and then zoomed in with the profiles and soundbites made the tragic event that much more emotional. Just the shots of the participates alone brought a lot of empathy to the article and I thought that the recordings involved were a nice touch. The loading speed was a little slow but the visually and emotionally capturing content was definitely well worth the wait.
