Sidmouth runners have been busy recently competing in various events, writes Lesley Roberts.

Milan Goc travelled to Bideford for a 10 miler along the Tarka Trail and came away with fourth place overall.

More modestly a group of us went to Cotleigh for the inaugural Cotleigh Canters put on by the Honiton Club.

There were three races all going on at once over 3, 5 and finally 10 km along the country lanes around the village hall.

The races were well supported and we came away with a lot of the honours.

Flurry Grierson won the 3k, his brother, Grey, and Lucy Owen came first and second in the five whilst Laurence Bolam was second in the 10k followed by a host of also-rans from the Club.

Times: (Bideford 10 mile) Milan Goc 1.00.35; (Cotleigh 10k) Laurence Bolam 35.56; Aaron Smith 45.04; John Perratt 48.24; Colin Flood 48.36; David Palmer 49.44; Deborah Scott 54.54; Sarah Brown 55.21; John Doherty 56.11; Rachel Burrow 60.22; Louise Brown 61.28; (5k) Grey Grierson 19.43; Lucy Owen 20.01; and (3k) Flurry Grierson 13.20
