And what happens?  I imagine that what happens is that the image does
not fill the column completely, or at least in the sense that you
wish.  The column will not span the whole left of the slide as there is
padding introduced by LaTeX around each column.

What you might be able to do is have the image be wider than the
\textwidth and use \hspace*{-1cm} to shift it to the left, as in

#+latex: \hspace*{-1cm}
#+ATTR_LATEX: width=\textwidth
[[file:img/runner.jpg]]

and play around with the -1cm to get what you want.

This is not ideal but LaTeX is not a desktop publishing language; it's a
fantastic typesetting language...
