It was perfect weather for the running of Honiton Running Club’s Ottery 10k.
The race was won by Oliver White in the amazing time of 33 minutes 58 seconds and the first lady was Serane Stone in the equally great time of 39:44.
Although quite a number of HRC runners were involved with the organisation of the event, several still managed to run the race. For several HRC runners, this was their first race since graduating from the Couch to 5k course run by the Club’s Chair, Paula Ferris.
First back for HRC was Ceri Oak who came 45th overall, 5th lady and 1st in her age category. Tim Pepper had a brilliant run and finished next for HRC in 52nd place in 45:45. Steve Davey had tough competition in the form of his daughter, Jo Buxton. Steve managed to cross the line first in 67th place with Jo finishing just one second later.
