Ann Packer
Posted: Sat May 30, 2015 7:52 pmNot strictly a track and field event but at today's Wincle Trout Race there was an unexpected special guest :
In 1964 a young Ann Packer blew the field apart in her second choice race to win the 800 m Gold in the 1964 Tokyo Olympics - watch here;

What an unexpected treat to have her presenting the prizes at the Wincle Trout Race this year and with no disrespect she looked fit enough to have blown away a good proportion of the field in today's race as well!
