A massive thank you to the almost 400 people of all ages who took part in this year's Tower Run to raise money for the Hospice.
The challenge, which was set in the city’s iconic St George’s Tower, witnessed another record breaker when Mark Sims, the previous stair-climbing champion, lost his title to newcomer Elliot Slaughter who set a new LOROS Tower Run record at 1.27.9 minutes.
In the female division, Sarah Frost smashed the previous record of 2.06.93 minutes as she finished at 1.49 minutes.
LOROS Events Lead, Andrew Ward, who also took part on the day said: “The atmosphere was just incredible. 384 people entered compared to 160 entrants last year. We had a real mixture of competitive runners who were trying to beat their personal best time and those who wanted to just walk it.
“It felt like a Tower Run community, everyone was really supportive and I’m already looking forward to next years event.”
