Some 26 athletes took on the hilly but scenic course from the Carrot Bay Festival Ground to Smugglers Cove and return.

Riley clocked 44:56 while Farley followed in 46:13.
Dereck Rawlins (48:01) won the battle for third place with Reuben Stoby (48:24) while Joseph McIvor took fifth in 51:26.
800m specialist Katrina Lindsay continued her good form at the longer distances, placing first for females in a time of 48:30. Lindsay finished 5th overall.
Caroline Sorrentino also ran a strong race, clocking 53:09 for second place.
Rosmond Johnson was third in 58:21.
The lone walker was Sophie Bennett (1:45.00).
