Glasgow was transformed into a sea of colour, as 35,000 runners took part in the AJ Bell Great Scottish Run.
The 10K and half marathon marked the biggest staging of the event in its history, with runners setting off from St Vincent Street before crossing the River Clyde and heading through some of the city’s greenest spaces.
Half marathon runners passed through Pollok Country Park before a grand finish at Glasgow Green, with thousands of supporters lining the route.
Jamie Crowe of Central Athletics Club claimed the men’s half marathon title in a time of 1:03:27, while Katrina Ballantyne of Leeds City Athletic Club won the women’s race in 1:13:33.
Ballantyne said the support from spectators helped carry her around the course.
She said: “The Glasgow crowd were amazing. They really carry you round.”
The event also saw runners embrace the opportunity to add some fun to the challenge, with a knight completing the 10K in full plate armour and Shrek taking part with Donkey perched on his shoulder.
Two runners also paid tribute to Glasgow’s famous Duke of Wellington statue by wearing traffic cone hats.
Four-time Olympian Eilish McColgan rang the bell to start the half marathon, while Tartan Trekker Craig Ferguson sent off the 10K runners before taking part in the half marathon himself.
Among the other runners were Paralympic skier Scott Meenagh and Glasgow Warriors head coach Franco Smith, who ran the 10K for Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity.
The weekend began with more than 2,000 children taking part in the Junior and Mini Great Scottish Run at Glasgow Green.
Organisers have already opened entries for the 2027 event, which will take place on October 2 and 3.
A Super Earlybird offer is available for runners who sign up before October 12.
