The winners of the long race out in front from the start!

Thursday 30th March saw 35 OWBA head onto Exmoor to tackle this notoriously gruelling run.  The weather was wet and windy, the mud sticky but nothing could deter our brave athletes, some of whom were held together with gaffer tape before the race even started!

Congratulations to all who took part for completing the course - this is no mean feat!
