The Grand East Anglian 10km run in King's Lynn on Sunday provided a flat course, which on a cool day contributed to some excellent performances by the Bungay Black Dog runners.

Kieran McMorran was 16th in a personal best of 34 mins 41 secs, and was the third fastest junior. Marcus Sladden, 48th, also produced a PB of 37.46 and was seventh junior, while 17 other Black Dogs took part among the 1,332 runners. • Black Dog finishers: Simon Asher was 105th (41.06), Richard Dye 229th (44.26), Nigel Gilham 351st (47.50), David Waterman 380th (48.31) and club captain Karen Gedge 543rd (50.56).

• On the Sunday, Ian Taylor completed the 27.2 mile Three Forts Challenge in Sussex over the muddy and slippery South Downs.

Determined to stay injury free to complete 100 marathons by 2013, Ian completed his 81st in 5:55 – 273rd of 293 finishers. Many dropped out due to the bad conditions or were injured during the torturous run.
