Colyton Fiver

Sunday 22nd November 2009 saw six members of the Exmouth Harriers running club take part in the Colyton Fiver, a five mile road race to raise funds for the Children in Need Appeal. Barring for the first male and female runner to complete the course there were no awards presented at the end of the race as all proceeds were donated to the fund.

Throughout the duration of the race the weather conditions were mainly dry and sunny although one of the lanes was under 225 millimetres of water, (9 nine inches) following the recent heavy rainfalls.

The overall winner was Peter Monaghan of Torbay ACC in a time of 28 minutes and 18 seconds.
.
The first Exmouth Harrier to cross the line was Paul Samways in a time of 31.34. Andy Kennedy finished in 32nd position in a time of 35.08. Phillip Quick finished in 36th position in a time of 35.49. Lee Russell finished in 47th position in a time of 37.28. John Perratt finished in 51st position in a time of 38.19. Les Turner finished in 102nd position in a time of 44.49. The final runner to cross the finish line was Harry Moore from the Axe Valley Runners in a time of 1 hour 7 minutes and 46 seconds.
