Highlights = Started off with a double parkrun & run in-between Rushmoor & Frimley Lodge (Thanks to Dave for the tow). The splendid Thames Valley Cross Country meet at Tadley which was a true mud-fest of a XC - fantastic. Planned progressive parkrun (Splits - 8:09, 7:45, 7:22) - encouraging.

Conclusions = Highest monthly running mileage since June 2013 (155). It`s been a good solid month of moving forward & active rest. No speed work but that will come. Good base work done.
