Relative stoic, if runs off (5,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

first cousin

'relative' is the definition.
(first cousin is a kind of relative)

'stoic if runs off' is the wordplay.
'off' indicates an anagram.
'stoic'+'if'+'runs'='stoicifruns'
'stoicifruns' is an anagram of 'FIRST COUSIN'.

(Other definitions for first cousin that I've seen before include "relative" , "Family member" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
