On Sunday more than 7,000 people finished the iconic Brighton Marathon at a new Finish Line at Hove Gardens, cheered on by huge crowds lining the 26.2-mile route.

Also on Sunday, the BM10K was the first event of the day – also held on a new course – starting and finishing on Hove Lawns. A total of 2,744 people finished the event.

That followed Saturday’s Mini Mile, which saw an army of juniors speed around their own course, all with all the race trimmings such as timing and medals.

Hugh Brasher, Event Director of the Brighton Marathon Weekend, said: “When London Marathon Events took on the Brighton Marathon Weekend, we knew it was a special set of events but it has surpassed our expectations.”
