George is running either north-east or south-west. Option B.

From the image, it appears that George’s shadow is being cast to his left and slightly behind him. This suggests that the sun is to his right and slightly in front of him.

Given that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, if the sun is to his right, then George must be running towards the north. However, since the sun is also slightly in front of him, he must be running towards the northeast.

So, the answer is B. either north-east or south-west. However, considering the sun’s movement from east to west, it’s more likely that George is running towards the north-east.
