Amazing feat! GSR 2015 completed – £700 donated to Cystic Fibrosis

Antonio from Valentino’s Displays completed the Morrisons 2015 Great South Run on the 25th October 2015. He ran for our 2015 sponsored charity Cystic Fibrosis, achieving a time of 1hr 21mins for the 10-mile course around Portsmouth, Hampshire.

A personal best achieved on the day, eclipsing his effort in 2012 of 1hr 25mins as well as this time raising £700.00 in donations. The weather was perfect for runners, a beautiful day on the South Coast with temperatures up to 16 degrees. A calm wind-less autumn morning in Portsmouth meant the notorious last 2 miles along the Seafront which usually has you running into a strong wind made it easier for runners to reach the finish line.

On the day he ran with his friend Michael who was running his first-ever 10-mile event. Well done for your own PB!

Antonio would like to thank everyone for their support, it is really appreciated. Thank you! For your amusement below are some images and video from the event.

For 2016 we will be sponsoring The British Heart Foundation.
