HUNDREDS of people donned their running shoes yesterday to raise money for charity.

About 400 people took part in the inaugural Glenlivet 10k to raise cash for Chest Heart and Stroke Scotland. The runners enjoyed the Moray scenery including views of Cromdale Hills, the famous Glenlivet Distillery and the River Livet valley.

People of all abilities took part in the 6.2-mile route which took them through Glenlivet village.

Some groups walked together while others jogged.

With all 400 spaces in the run filled, the charity is hoping to raise thousands. A Chest Heart and Stroke Scotland spokeswoman said the charity was “absolutely delighted” with the turnout and thanked participants for taking part.

The money raised will go to those in Scotland who are affected by chest, heart and stroke illnesses. The charity funds medical research, advice, information and support to those affected.
