No records were set this year but it would have brought in plenty of donations for Hope House Children's Hospices, the event's charity partner.

Alan Lewis, owner of organiser Adrenaline Sporting Events, said: "I am really happy and really proud about how it all went. Everyone finished safe and the weather was fantastic."

Mr Lewis said 600 people had signed up for the race and 536 completed it, which he was pleased with.

"Our first race before Covid had 800 runners so we are still in recovery mode," said Mr Lewis.
