MORE than 700 runners took part in the second annual Lymm.com 10k race – almost double the number from last year’s inaugral run.
The runners had to compete against strong head wins as they ran through some of the countryside around Lymm village.
Starting and finishing in Lymm High School on Oughtrington Lane, the event also included fun run for children earlier in the day, helping raise funds for Children in Need.
