GALLERY: Knox shows everyone a clean pair of heels to claim overall victory at the Muskies Madness 10k

STORM Plymouth’s Lauren Knox showed everyone a clean pair of heels to claim overall victory at the Muskies Madness 10k on Sunday morning.

Knox beat all the men as well as the women to secure the win in the tough off-road event in a time of 42 minutes and 12 seconds.

That was four-and-a-half minutes quicker than she had run on the same course 12 months ago as she finished 10th overall and second woman in 2025.

Second place – and first male – on Sunday was Teignmouth Trotters’ over-50 veteran Roger Easterbrook, who clocked 43.10 minutes, with Tamar Trotters’ fellow M50 runner Pete Waumsley taking third place overall in 45.25 minutes.

Fourth was Melvyn Griffiths in 45.40, with James Bird fifth in 46.22 minutes.

Teignbridge Trotters’ Chloe Weeks was second woman home in 52.26 minutes. Her team-mate Elizabeth Nuttall was third woman and first F50, while Plymouth Harriers’ Laura Goodspeed was fourth.

The off-road race started and finished at Marine Academy Plymouth and took athletes down into Ham Woods. Some 129 runners finished the event.
