Great stuff, Greg 👏🏼👏🏼 I remember Georgie doing those 400 reps and really struggling to hit the paces - always good to just put a marker down and see the fitness build over time! Thanks for the shout-out and good luck wishes, really enjoyed your company on the way back from parkrun - flew by for me too! And Sunday looked like another mudfest - fair play for getting it done. Looking forward to next week’s edition 😊

Nice one Greg, great effort on those “Something Of Substance” days. I just noticed that you are a week in front of me. That means one of us has timed the Hensons plan leading to the 27th April incorrectly! Not a big issue I guess and helps me as I can see you taking on the pain that awaits me next week 😊
