Here are a selection of photographs from Boston’s Race for Life of 2011.

Some 1,460 took part in the 5k event, held at the Princess Royal Sports Arena in aid of Cancer Research UK. It was hoped more than £130,000 would be raised for the cause as a result of their efforts. Olivia Molitor, area events manager for Cancer Research UK, said: “It was really good and we had a really good turnout. Luckily it didn’t start raining until half-an-hour before the end of the event.”
