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!

Cornwall is indeed a bit of a trek, but in my opinion only windermere & Robin Hood are better.

The saturday night is always a great laugh with all the guys.

Alternative dates that don't clash are virtually impossible especially when you factor in the local XC league races too which the organising club competes in. But I was surprised they opted for the same date as St Neots which is a big race in this region.

The attraction of Luton was the fact it was December's only UK road marathon - There will be folks given the choice will choose anything rather than luton because through no fault of the organisers it has been cancelled twice in 3 years :(

Exactly the reason they have sought an alternative date for? Next year is an important one for this race and it will sink or swim based whether they can get a decent turnout of runners.

I'm with Foxy... Cornish all the way... Loved it down there this year and would rather travel the extra distance to run in something I know I'll enjoy :-)
