Senior Training Plan - W/C 15/02/21

This week's plan is brought to you by Mike Shrive. Don't forget to run your 5 mile relay and submit your time too if you haven't done so already!

Please take great care during these extreme and variable weather conditions. There have  already been two club members who have suffered serious injuries on the Pednor Loop, just after the Westdean Lane junction. At time of writing, frost has made paths over the Chilterns full of uneven ridges, great for ankle problems !
