The 7^th race in the Somerset Series took the local clubs to Cricket St Thomas last Sunday with approximately 160 runners tackling the private estate course with its lakes, woodlands and farmland.  With hot conditions dominating throughout the race the severe hills proved an extra challenge on the day with a junior race starting the event, Wells   Luke Prior put the clubs colours sharply into focus with a dominate win over the 1 mile course.

The 10k race organised by Chard Road Runners saw 6 Wells Harriers competing over the mainly dry course.

With super vet Clive Harwood ( 1^st Vet 60 in 21^st place ) supporting  Crewkerne’s colours on the day it was Graham Goldsmid who fronted the Harriers score sheet finishing in 30^th position clocking 51:36.

Rebecca Carver ran  a superb race with a well judged run to finish 1^st senior female clocking 53:23, with Katrina Prior 55:16 taking 2^nd V35 prize with her 46^th place overall. Other finishers included Pete Wright 56^th, 57:44, Catherine Goldsmid 80^th, 63:10 and Hayley Carver 117^th 66:39.
