On Sept. 7 several thousand people participated in the Run Under Chestnuts, an annual charity race held to help children with heart diseases. 

Some 3,000 runners showed up at Mykhaylivska Square in central Kyiv to participate in the race that has been taking place in Kyiv annually for the last 22 years.

The race owes its name to the chestnut trees, hallmarks of Kyiv.
