Nearly 4,000 Teessiders turned up to stamp out cancer at the Race for Life this weekend.
Women walked, jogged or ran the 5k course at Middlesbrough’s Ormesby Hall on Friday evening and Saturday morning.
Bright sunshine and warm temperatures greeted the participants, who all dressed in pink.
Most wore a personal message which told the story of why they are taking part in the event - from remembering lost loved ones, to supporting the fight against cancer.
Altogether, the Middlesbrough events were thought to have raised around £190,000 for cancer research.
The Race for Life nationally has raised almost £500m for cancer research since it began in 1994.
