Chris Clegg  C135
1913-2007

 

from Tim Erickson, Secretary Australian Centurions.

writes Dave Ainsworth - editor of Essex Walker:

Centurion 135 CHRIS CLEGG has bowed out.    He qualified in the 1947 London-to-Brighton-and-Back event and also repeated that feat later in his career.    He was still attempting 100 Miles racing when Hon.Ed. qualified in 1974!    

Chris was a member of Leicester's winning National teams in the 1946 20 Miles at Coventry and the National 50K at Bradford.    You might have read about Mr.Clegg's death before in various publications, for it was reported (in error) a short while back.   Chris found out and write to let us know that he was still alive but was not very well.   Well sadly, in the this occasion, the Grim Reaper has caught up with him.
