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!

26.05 for my fake parkrun this lunchtime. I’ll post my time on Saturday morning.

I thought 💭 I’d better get my run 🏃🏼‍♂️ in today, as the weather forecast for the next three days is pretty diabolical. In fact, it might be a good idea if I shut myself in my workshop & started building an ark!

managed a fake parkrun on wednesday evening - after rain all day, the clouds lifted and the sun shone. Lovely. Plus I remembered my blue inhaler before running - 4 min faster than last week! Yay for ventolin. 31 minutes, so my fastest 5k for a long time (nice flat route and no wind, so pretty much a cheat).

I did a double this morning. My riverside route is just about 10k so I've declared it back-to-back parkruns. I just need to use Fetch whizzbottery to split the run in two.

Intervals this morning same session as two weeks ago giving a 5k time of 22:56 which was a bit quicker than two weeks ago. Proper fake parkrun next week and hopefully a 10k race the week after. Good luck everyone getting one in this weekend with the weather forecast

It appears that you can't log two on the same day.

Did a provisional tonight. I figured that my 'Summer' route would be waterlogged so I did my 'Winter' route. Got half way round and that was impassable. Still, 26:56 which is Ok but at least I got one in.

Well done TR, brilliant!

31:31 for me today. Tired legs after 20,000 steps yesterday, without any running.
