This week's runs - 2nd and 3rd August

Thanks so much to all of you for participating so enthusiastically in the new warm up - skipping, galloping and hacky sacks! I'm sure Karen has springs in her trainers... All 3 sessions this week had a strength focus - hills and a strength exercise at the end ("the stork") which worked on foot & ankle strengthening. And the strength is required - bear in mind that each time you land, that's 2-3 times your body weight being taken by each single foot landing! We'll have a different strength exercise this week.
