Talmud for Bava Kamma 3:6

שְׁנַיִם שֶׁהָיוּ מְהַלְּכִין בִּרְשׁוּת הָרַבִּים אֶחָד רָץ וְאֶחָד מְהַלֵּךְ, אוֹ שֶׁהָיוּ שְׁנֵיהֶם רָצִים, וְהִזִּיקוּ זֶה אֶת זֶה, שְׁנֵיהֶם פְּטוּרִין:

If two were walking in the public domain, one walking and one running. Or if two were running and they injured each other, both are not liable. [Our Mishnah is defective. This is what was taught: If one were running and the other walking on the eves of Sabbaths or festivals, or if both were running on the other days of the year, both are not liable. For on the eves of Sabbaths and festivals, one who runs is authorized to do so, running as he does for the sake of a mitzvah, to prepare his Sabbath and festival needs, wherefore he is not liable. And on the other days of the year, when they both run, since both are deviating from the norm, they are both not liable.]
