The improved fitness of our squad caused me to ponder if there is some magical properties available on these runs through Laughton Woods. I was so moved that today I donned my running gear and headed down to said woods. After 30 minutes of gentle jogging I can report that I was worked a lot harder than on my usual route. On reflection on the way home, I realised that this was not magic, but due to the fact that I had to jump, stumble and swerve to avoid the rabbit holes and dogshit. Apologies if I’ve revealed a training secret!
