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!

Shorter swim today due to lane rage as I got out rather than completely lose my temper with an ignorant sort blocking the lane (only 3 lanes available)

Nightmare, I had a specific swim focus this week and I have got rest weeks and work trips away coming up which will slow my progress

How frustrating.

Must say the double width lanes are helping my line rage.

Had 4 other swimmers in my lane all slower by quiet a bit and had plenty of room to pass no problem.

We've managed to get into a good routine turning up just after 1pm when things are generally thinning out a bit, which gives us a good hour+ with generally a maximum of three to a lane, often ending up with a lane to myself.

Fetch has answered my mile:league question.

In Fetchland there are 3.45234 miles to a league.

Thanks Sushi - I thought that meant I was owed the 0.5 leagues badge - until I looked at the detailed swim log instead of the headline one (at least I'll get it next swim)

Ooh I've reached the outskirts of Abingdon

Quite handy as I have family here and it'll be a couple of days before I can move on.

Confy bed for a couple of nights then.

... 'Fusion' run our local pools, it was £4.70 before Covid. But now they charge £8 and you can only swim for an hour's session at a time..


They must be reading this thread: they've just put swimming sessions down to £5.20. Seems more reasonable, although gym booking now costs £1.80 more. Swings and roundabouts.
