The annual Great City Games Manchester took place on 26th May 2017, only 4 days after a terrorist attack, to show how defiant the city is.

The athletics event, which is held on the streets of Manchester, continued with a massive police presence.

IAAF president Sebastian Coe explains how Manchester is a "city that understands sport" and how it can actually be a "part of the healing process"
