Congratulations to all those hardy runners who completed the North Devon AONB marathon and half marathon today at Woolacombe in aid of the North Devon Hospice.

Whilst holiday makers and locals made the most of the scorching summer Sunday sunshine, hundreds of marathon runners took off at 10 o'clock this morning on a route which took them up to a height of 3,300 feet over gravel, sand, stone, turf and tarmac.

If only the England football team had shown the determination and resolve that the North Devon marathon runners had then maybe there would be a few more smiling faces this evening!
