The vibe is electric at Marks Park Sports Club this morning, 6 October, as runners, walkers and those who just want to have fun are dressed up and ready to take on a challenging 10km or easier 5km race around the streets of Emmarentia.
Among those we spotted are the Face of the Race winner and fellow finalists.
