On an already baking-hot day in the Canary Islands James Heathcote turned on the heat to win the fourth running of the Fudenas Marathon. The Briton escaped after 50 kilometres in what would turn out to be an ultimately successful 90 kilometre break.
With temperatures soaring over 30 degrees centigrade in the shade Heathcote was one of 800 competitors to be provided with some of 10,000 bottles distributed by some 350 military personnel. He crossed the line in a little over five hours, 16 minutes ahead of second-placed Hans Peter Obwaller. Michael Kalivoda finished third, three minutes further back.
In the team’s competition Bike Bike Natural C.C. claimed victory ahead of Bemekis and Terravolcan C.C.
