WORCESTER Racecourse was transformed into a sea of pink as thousands took part in this year's Race for Life events, raising money for Cancer Research UK.

On Saturday, participants had fun getting messy during the Pretty Muddy event, a fun-filled and challenging obstacle race.

Then on Sunday some 1,700 women donned pink outfits and took part in the more traditional 5k and 10k Race for Life events around the racecourse.

Organisers are still totalling up the funds raised but have hailed this year's events as another big success.

Our gallery features photographs from both days, taken by our photographers at the events and submitted by people taking part.
