Double joy for rugby fans at Hull 10k race
BBCThousands of runners have taken to the streets of Hull for the city's annual Jane Tomlinson Run for All 10k race.
On Sunday participants tackled a new course for the first time, with both the start and finish at Hull Kingston Rovers' ground, Craven Park.
The stadium will also be the focal point for the team's bus parade through Hull after they won the Challenge Cup at Wembley on Saturday.
KR fans were among the runners who took part in the 10k and one said he was "still in shock" the day after the victory.
Chris Grubb ran in rugby kit carrying a blow-up trophy - a stunt he planned two weeks ago in case the Robins won.
"I woke up this morning smiling," he said, after returning from Wembley to make the start line.
"I looked around and everyone was crying. It was so emotional."
He only had six hours of sleep after arriving home from the Cup final.
"It's just been a long time coming, and now, I keep saying to everyone, I can die a happy man because we've finally done it!"
The race was won by Joseph Wilson with a time of 31 minutes and eight seconds, and Coralle Bell was the fastest woman with 37.14.
The oldest man in the race was John Burkhill, 86. Mr Burkhill, from Sheffield, was raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support and has collected nearly £1.2m for the charity.
He entered his 1,055th event across the UK in memory of his son's wife.
He said: "It's a very special day for me today. I've got some good friends here, I come back every year to do it."
Founders of the charity Aim Higher, Gill Jagger and Nicola Robinson, took part in the run dressed as Nintendo characters Mario and Luigi. Their charity promotes social inclusion for children and young adults with autism or mental health conditions.
There were also 30 members of staff from the Special Stars Foundation, which supports adults and children with additional needs, running the course.
The new route for the 10k was chosen because of roadworks on the A63.
The race is named after Ms Tomlinson, who raised almost £2m for charity by taking part in endurance events around the world before her death from cancer in 2007.
