It was another strong weekend of racing for Carn Runners as members headed to North Devon to take part in the Braunton events, with runners tackling both the 10K and 10-mile distances.
With coastal scenery, testing miles, and classic race-day conditions, Braunton provided a great backdrop — and Carn Runners were once again proudly represented in club colours 💙💛
Braunton 10K Efforts
Taking on the 10K were Joanne, Judy, Sarah, and Dennis.
It was a solid set of runs across the board, with everyone digging in and getting the job done on a course that demanded effort and focus. Great to see Carn Runners well represented and supporting each other throughout — exactly what club racing is all about.
Dennis once again showed that age is no barrier to getting out there and racing hard… even if the results table didn’t quite tell the full story this time.
10 Miles and an Age Group Win 🏆
Over the longer 10-mile distance, Janet R and Janet W took on the challenge.
A special mention goes to Janet W, who finished 1st in her age group — a fantastic result and a brilliant reward for a strong and determined run 👏
Justice for Dennis 😄
We do need to address the small matter of age categories…
With no over-80s age group, Dennis narrowly missed out on what would almost certainly have been another podium moment. We can confirm that this has not gone unnoticed — a complaint has been lodged 😉 and we’ll be keeping a close eye on future race age-group structures!
Another Great Club Showing
From the 10K runners to the 10-milers, Braunton was another example of Carn Runners doing what we do best — turning up, racing hard, and enjoying it together.
Well done to Joanne, Judy, Sarah, Dennis, Janet R, and Janet W on a great set of performances and another proud weekend for the club 💙💛
