Lucian Alisson became the fastest finisher of any Jane Tomlinson Run For All 10K in their 12 years of organising running events.

The popular race weekend also featured the Arena Group Lincoln Mini and Junior runs which took place on Saturday.

Hundreds of excited children aged 3-15 pulled on their trainers for the runs at the Yarbrough Leisure Centre and left with a new medal and a smiling face.
