This is the week that was….

A much quieter week this week, although we had all our usual club runs in the cold and dark with extra coaching sessions from our coaching team!

parkrun day saw LFRs at Milton Keynes, Houghton Hall, Didcot, Wendover Woods, Hunstanton Promenade and Rushmere.  At home in Rushmere, Emily came in first lady AND ran a stonking new PB!

It was Rushmere's 4th birthday at the weekend.  The core team is made up of a LOT of LFRs....just look at them all in the main photo.  Fancy dress professionals.

We did have some LFRs out running and racing ths weekend...

Gill ran her first full 5K in a while at the 5K MoRun.  It's the Milton Keynes MoRun next week.  Who is running?  Will LFR's Davina be making her annual appearance?

A few LFRs got together for a 10 mile Sunday run.  If you're ever in need of a running partner in the week or the weekend, post on the FB group and there's usually other members who would like a run too.

Colin took a trip to Scotland to run a marathon in -4 at  Strathclyde Park Marathon.  Depsite the cold and mistakenly setting off with the half marathon runners, before turning round 150m later to start with the marathoners, Colin finished in the top 20 with a 3.27!  Superb work!  Well done, Colin!

And finally, Emma and Wes took a pilgrimage to the original marathon in Athens!  Excellent work ladies!

That's all for this week.  Have a great week, LFR!
