Concerns have been raised over the safety of an insane mass start of around 250 runners at a half-marathon.
The Indian Queens Half Marathon held on Sunday in Cornwall did not feature a staggered start as recommended by Covid-19 safety advice.
One runner in the event, John Barnes, said he was surprised to see so many people congregating at the start.
The race director said she believed she had followed guidance and any breach was unintentional.
