James Graham clinched the Kent Grand Prix M60 title with M60 victory at the Bexley 10k on Sunday 12th July. This gave James six wins in the six-best-scores-out-of-ten-races competition, which means he can't be caught, even though there are still three races remaining.
James was 28th overall in the race in 40:50, with John Wallace the only other SAC runner on the day finishing 55th in 44:41.
The full Bexley results are here.
Sally Shewell, second W55, and Chris Desmond, third M50, are also currently doing well in the GP. The spreadsheet after seven races is here.
