Chester Racecourse was abundant in pink on Sunday, July 17, as swarms of women arose early to take part in the Race for Life.

The annual fundraiser in aid of Cancer Research UK saw almost 2,000 participants either run or walk around the city in the 5k event to raise money in memory of those who have been affected by cancer.

We received so many photographs from the event that we have created a second gallery.

If you'd like to appear in our gallery, send us your photos via our Facebook page or tweet us @ChesterChron.
