So that's it for this week - we have a few races next weekend - both quite famous - the Cambridge Town and Gown 10k for Muscular Dystrophy - a lovely race with some scenic architecture and views along the way, and also the Abingdon Marathon - which is THE flattest road marathon in the country.
Until next time, stay safe and remember to wear light and reflective stuff and have flashy lights as the nights and evenings draw in...
