Veteran York runners trounced the opposition at a Yorkshire charity run - and raised cash for needy children.

James Farrar, 72, was first over the line in the over-70s section of the Barnardos race at Roundhay Park, Leeds.

And Malcolm Fawcett, of Green Hammerton, won the over-60s event.

The race raised more than £3,500 for the charity.

Race organiser Mick Helm said: "We're very pleased with the amount raised and by the effort everyone put in to making the day such a success.

"Not only was the event enjoyed by all, but it will also help make a difference to the lives of thousands of children, young people and their families in the region."
