In a bid to raise money for Cancer Research UK, participants of all ages and abilities took part in completing three distances around the park. Some ran, some jogged and some walked the 3k, 5k and 10k routes, but how they completed the distance didn’t matter.

Falkirk Herald photographer Michael Gillen was among those in the park cheering the fundraisers on. Here are some of his photographs capturing the day’s action.

Three routes were set up for participants around the park.
