TWO West Devon runners, Liz Vernon and Clare Short, were back having fun at one of the South West's best running events last weekend.
The Plymouth Half Marathon starts and finishes at the Promenade on the Hoe. The 13.1 mile undulating course takes in a scenic route through Saltram Park before weaving in and out of the lanes of Plymouth. The weather was perfect and both athletes set off in high spirits. Liz Vernon came in feeling strong and pleased with her personal best time for this course.
Clare Short did a time of 1hr 57mins, which was 44 minutes faster than she did it five years ago.
Liz and Clare both agree this is one of the best Half Marathons they have done this year.
