Development director at Chailey Heritage Sally-Anne Murray said they were 'thrilled' to see so many families taking part in the inaugural event.
Speaking of next year's fixture, she said: “We expect this year to be even bigger and better, and thanks to our headline sponsor Focus Group we can open the race to more participants than ever before.
“Events like the Focus 10K raise essential funds for the young people at Chailey Heritage Foundation and provide facilities that really helps them pursue their full potential.”
