Some ran for a cause, others just for fun - over 48,000 people took part in this year's Chevron City to Surf.

A YOUNG runner who collapsed at the finishing line of yesterday's City to Surf has died in hospital.
The man, understood to be in his early 30s, collapsed when he finished the half-marathon.
He was rushed to Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital but died a short time later.
His name has not yet been released.
In a statement issued today the Chevron City to Surf for Activ organisers confirmed the man's death.
"During Sunday morning's event a male participant collapsed at the finish line and received immediate medical attention from the event's medical provider, St John Ambulance," the statement read.
"The participant was taken by ambulance to Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital and organisers have since been advised by WA Police that the participant has passed away.
"The event organisers express their sincere condolences to the runner's family and friends. Our thoughts are with them."
Two years ago, 30-year-old Frenchman Vincent Maudieu died soon after he collapsed just metres from the half-marathon finish line.
