Patrick Devine-Wright took first place in the 2021 East Devon Round ultra-marathon trail race, finishing the distance of about 100km with approximately 3000m of climb in 11 hours and 46 minutes.
The route included local highlights such as Danes Hill above Dalwood, the Undercliff between Lyme Regis and Seaton, and Blackbury camp.
Plaudits to race organiser Alisdair Moffett for mitigating the race's carbon emissions by having one tree planted for each competitor.
