Participants walked, hopped, skipped, jumped or danced to the finish line.

Annie Jones who took part said: “The weather was amazing, it’s all about having fun but raising money for the hospice at the same time.
“I’ll definitely be doing it again next year, and will bring my kids!”
Children from as little as three can also take part and the colour powder used is 100% natural.
