An army major and a runner from the Fens honoured current and past armed forces personnel in a virtual 10k charity challenge. 
Major Anthony Gleave of Welney and James Turrington, of the village’s running club, were two of 200 runners taking part in the VE Day event on May 8 to mark 76 years since Victory in Europe was declared. 
“We were overwhelmed by the amount of runners and non-runners from our small village who took up the challenge this weekend,” Anthony said.
