Sunday was the next race in South Devon AC’s Grand Prix series at the Killerton 10K. Torrential rain just before the race didn’t dampen anyone’s enthusiasm and fortunately the rain stopped and held off long enough for everyone to get around the course. The course is a series of loops and switchbacks through the grounds and woods at Killerton house with plenty of hills and some slippery descents. The race is run in a series of waves so despite Alex Magee leading our wave from
