It's Thursday and you know what that means...
The last stop before the WTF weekender and we have a packed one
The injury table is back, as we all celebrate, and are in no way jealous, of Matts amazing sub 19 Parkrun PB this past weekend.
Educating Lou rolls on, with a chat about keeping easy runs easy and then its another Emmaless Parkrun segment as Ben tells us all about Cliffe Castle in Keighley - leaving Rob to frankly regret ever suggesting the rating system
Of course there is also a roll call, some thank yous and a look ahead at this weekend's antics
