Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I remember that. Was he the guy who had the complete collapse afterwards and had to be dragged away?

Yes. He went on a joint attempt with Andy Blackett, who dropped out with a knee injury. We hammered him round leg 4 as he was suffering and after coaxing him to Newlands almost ran arm in arm with him.

Poor lad had to take a shit on the fell side in front of his dad who then had to help him pull his shorts up 😀

It's all coming back. I remember having a pint with Andy Blackett in the pub afterwards, he wasn't in the best of moods (unsurprisingly).

I think someone else on the forum should have a go so we can snigger at their bad patches.

My bad patch


Moments later I belched and farted at the same time then hammered it up Steel Fell.

Typical toddler, it was trapped wind all along 😀

To be honest, I haven't ruled in or out doing one. I keep yo-yoing with the idea.

And given previous experiences in ultras, I'm almost certain to have a bad patch, often a long one.
