Great running by everyone in very challenging heat.

The following evening saw 255 runners attack the infamous Haytor Heller, hosted by the Teignbridge Trotters. The 6 mile race starts below Haytor rock and takes in several steep ascents and descents and is run across rugged, open moorland with a stream crossing. Tom Atwill finished in 113th place with a time of 01:06:43, again in very hot conditions.
