RUNNERS of all ages took part in a fun run around the small lake at Keynes Country Park to raise funds for conservation work there.

Holidaymakers, local people and lots of excited children took part in the run, with child runners completing one lap of the course. Older children ran two and adults three.

Running in weather described by organisers as perfect running conditions, all funds collected from the £4 and £7 entrance fees will go towards different conservation projects in the Park in the coming year.

A park spokesman said: "It was a great day and everyone taking part had tremendous fun."
