Many thanks to all the marshals and LM Events for taking over The Honiton Triathlon and keeping it going in these difficult times.
Cliff Marriott ran the Burrator 10K in 48:56 and was highly impressed with the scenic route which he described as “I might have still been in Devon but could have been Narnia”.
