Among others, world champions heading for seaside as reward (3,4,5)
I believe the answer is:
for ones pains
'reward' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'among others world champions heading for seaside as' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'among' could be 'in' (eg among or in a group) and 'in' is located in the answer.
'as' is within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
