Rocking everything from moustaches to superhero outfits, over 1,200 people, and a few dogs, headed to Campbell Park on Sunday to take part in the annual MoRun.
Raising money for various causes, in particular the Movember Foundation, runners of all ages and abilities participated in 5km or 10km MoRuns, all whilst having fun and raising awareness for men’s health.
The winner of the men's 10km event was Ben Hyams, whilst the winner of the woman’s 10km event was Joanna Johnson. Ben Hawkins took the MoChampion medal for the men’s 5km, whilst the winner of the woman’s 5km event for the second year running was Deborah Smith. All finishers were rewarded with a curved moustache medal for their efforts.
“The atmosphere at Campbell Park was incredible! It was brilliant to see so many people enjoying themselves and raising awareness for men’s health," said Dave Krangel, founder of MoRunning.
"MoRunning really brings the community together and it feels not only like a team, but as if we all part of a one big family! I loved seeing everybody’s moustaches and fancy dress and how much fun people were having during the race, whilst raising awareness for many worthy causes. That’s what it’s all about!”
MoRunner Rachel Gaines added: “A wonderful run, extremely well organised with great volunteers both at the start, finish and along the route. A fantastic crowd of people all helping to raise money and awareness. We will be back for the next one. Thank you!”
