Kicking off the 2024 Race for Life events season in Yorkshire, the Leeds bumper weekend included Pretty Muddy and Pretty Muddy Kids on Saturday – which is a mud-splattered obstacle course - followed by a choice of Race for Life 3k, 5k or 10K on Sunday.
Under blue skies and warm sunshine at Temple Newsam Park, more than 5,000 people took part and have raised more than half a million pounds for cancer UK.
Here are 21 of the best pictures from the bumper weekend.
