ATHLETES from Falmouth Road Runners went along to take part in the Race for Wildlife.

The seven mile run organised by Mounts Bay Harriers raises money for the Cornwall Wildlife Trust.

Participants start at Penwith College and navigate around Heamoor, Madron, Trythall, Bone Valley before finishing back at the college.

In freezing conditions, 140 competitors completed the course and were treated to mince pies and Christmas songs afterwards along with each receiving a medal.
