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!

Sorry if there's already a thread for this, but I couldn't find one.

I'm a newbie this year, so I need advice:

1. Training? What?

2. Kit? What?
3. Stickers - who's coming?

Cheers.

Hi Linds, I'll be there! Going solo this year!

Training? Solo or in a team? When I did it as a team we practised running multiple times in one day.

Kit. Lots of it, all of it! All of your shoes! Headtorches. Lots of food. Comfy chairs. And a gazebo.

Cheers Stu. Be good to see you again.

In a team of 5.

Small tent or big tent? I'll probably be sharing with my 15 year old, who's support.

Chairs is a good shout.

I just had a tiny pop-up tent, didn't really spend any time in it, just stashed my kit in it.

I'm not 100% sure if I slept or not, if I did it was about 20 minutes! Spent all the non-running time sat under the gazebo chatting and eating!

We did Basingstoke parkrun last year. I won't be parkrunning this year.

Quite nervous, third time at Endure, first solo effort. So all the pain and none of the fun!
