Headington Roadrunner Gary Harris led home over 750 runners in the CPM Thame 10K Road Race on Sunday.

Harris, who crossed the line in 32 mins 57secs, was too good for French visitor Stephane Vautier, who clocked 33.06.

The two leaders were followed by a cluster of local athletes, headed by Witney duo Tony Lock (34.13) and John Atyeo (34.16).

Returning to fitness after a long lay-off, Woodstock Harriers' Dave Ashton was next home in 34.16, picking up first place in the Vet 40 age group and out-staying teammate Bryan Vaughan, who was first Vet 50 home in 34.23.

Mike Shipway made it a clean sweep for Woodstock veterans, clocking 40.21 to win the Vet 60 race.
