Angle runner

Wide-angle picture of a male runner silhouetted against the setting sun as he rounds the base of the Angel of the North statue, Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, England

The Angel of the North is Britain's largest sculpture, standing 65 feet (20 metres) high, with a 180-foot (54-metre) wingspan and weighing 195 tons (200 tonnes). It was designed by Antony Gormley and based in part on his own body.

The statue was erected in 1998 alongside the A1 road at Gateshead, overlooking the Team Valley.
