In pictures: Looking back at Peterborough’s Perkins Great Eastern Run in 2018 - part 2

This is the second instalment of our look back at the Perkins Great Eastern Run in 2018.

Hundreds of runners and thousands of spectators braved the pouring October rain in a memorable event - the last one to take place in the city before the pandemic.

Only the Anna’s Hope Fun Run took place in 2019 after the main race had to be cancelled following a police incident on the course in which a man had been seen acting suspiciously.

No details of the 2022 are available on the event’s website yet but the city council has confirmed the race will take place this year.
