Thousands of locals reached for their sports gear this morning to take part in the 9th edition of the President's Fun Run.
The run, which began in Rabat's Saqqajja Hill, took participants on an 11.3km course ending in Valletta.
Participants more inclined to walk rather than run could join the even in Paola Square, the University of Malta or Santa Venera.
The various routes congregated at Portes des Bombes, Floriana and ended in Valletta.
President Marie-Louise Coleiro Preca, Prime Minister Joseph Muscat and Opposition leader Adrian Delia led participants down Republic Street as they made their way to the finish line at St George's Square, where president Coleiro Preca and Dr Muscat addressed the crowd.
The President's Fun Run is organised in aid of the Malta Community Chest Fund Foundation.
