Despite the picture two South Devon AC runners weren’t feeling goofy at all as they took on the Walt Disney World marathon in Orlando Florida. Despite hot, humid conditions Dani and Antony Waters both did fantastically running their first marathon - well done both!
South Devon AC 2020 Grand Prix kicked off with the “Oh my Obelisk” nine mile race hosted by Dawlish Coasters, a nice muddy trail race. Kevin Ashworth and Kerry Bell took maximum points being first male and female back for the club.
At the extreme end of running and racing Marc Jones was at the Spine Challenger race over the Pennines. As well as a brutal course there was extreme weather which meant despite a heroic effort Marc was one of many forced to stop suffering with cold temperatures.
