AMAZING Feet Running Club boasted a bumper turnout at their Wyre Forest 8 mile multi-terrain race as the annual event celebrated its 10th anniversary.
More than 300 athletes completed the hilly course in hot and muddy conditions on Sunday after overnight rain and a rise in temperature.
Race full notices were put up three weeks before the popular ROC Fencing-sponsored event, leaving many runners disappointed.
Each finisher received a special anniversary commemorative medal from Amazing Feet, while the five runners who have completed all 10 events since 1997 were given cut glass rose bowls.
