The sixth annual Michelmores Charity run got underway under brilliant sunshine in Cathedral Yard Exeter when 770 runners took to their heels after Olympic equestrian medallist Mary King blew the starting hooter.
The race was preceded by a mass 'sweat and stretch' session in front of the Cathedral before the runners gathered for the 5 kilometre race which ended at the Imperial Hotel.
Michelmores, who have raised in excess of £50,000 for charity in the first five years of the event, anticipate that another £15,000 will be on its way to the Devon Air Ambulance Trust and inner city charity Surestart.
Winners.
Men: Mark Cowen
Women: Hannah Dupain
