Congratulations to Reigate College student Poppy Wardley for her success in the recent Run Reigate event.

Poppy finished in an amazing 3rd place in the Women’s 10K run having completed the race in an impressive 45 minutes.  

As well as training with Reigate Priory Athletics Club’s senior group three times a week, Poppy also fits in extra running and swimming on top. She said of Run Reigate, “Because I mostly train for cross country, it was the first road race I’ve ever run. It was so much fun!”

Previously at Reigate School, Poppy is studying A Level Chemistry, Biology and English Literature as well as an EPQ looking at the medical response to the 2010 Haiti earthquake. She is planning on having a Gap year after College before hopefully taking up a place at medical school.
