The run was not limited to humans, with many dogs taking part in the race.

“Our school is running for ‘Give a Dog a Bone” charity, which is a charity that helps older people are over sixty that are lonely with a companion dog. So, the dogs are running it as well at the back,” said Heather Lang a teacher at Hutchesons’ Grammar School in Glasgow.

The event is organized by the Glasgow City Council, to raise money for charities.
