St George is the patron saint of England. Despite that, the day is not really celebrated here. I saw one flag on a car this morning (hopefully it hasn't been there since the 2010 World Cup) and this one above the Usher Gallery, which is now a part of The Collection: Museum and Art Gallery.

Lincoln 10k

The wheelchairs started 5 minutes ahead of the runners.


The horn sounded and off they went.


Elite runners started from the front of the pack. The rest were graded with faster runners nearer the front through to slower towards the rear.


The horn sounded and off they went.


About 5,500 people took part today.


As with the Olympics, it's the efforts of volunteers that make these events happen.
