Boston Poppy Run


On Remembrance Sunday at 11:02, immediately after the national 2min silence, Grantham Running Club’s Tony Johnson started the Boston Poppy Run 5 Mile Road Race. In a small field running over the expected flat and windy course Tony was surprised to find himself in 2nd place at halfway. Battling with the strengthening wind in the 2nd half of the race, Tony dropped to 3rd place and manged to hang on to equal his highest finish positon of the year. No age category prizes were awarded to maximise proceeds for the Royal British Legion, however Tony was delighted to come away as first MV50 with a time of 32:21.
