Quite a crowd gathered this year just outside the Masons Arms for the start of the 2010 "Black Bun Run".
For the first time in a few years, the weather was kind and there was no sign of snow or ice. Welcome news indeed for those that insist on "vest and shorts only" for this race.
23 runners, from young to not-so-young, ran along Edinburgh Road to West Barns before doing a quick loop and retracing their steps in this 1.5 mile dash.
