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!

We had someone today who allowed their dig to foul alongside finish line & leave it - I just cannot grasp the mentality/ignorance of people.

Their dog! If I'd seen them I'd have told them exactly what I thought of them.

I've never matched my finish position to (personal) run number, but missed by one on 5 occasions. The most notable were 17th on my 16th run and 16th on my 17th :-)

Found my local parkrun too late to get anywhere near matching finish position to event run number - the event number has exceeded the total finishers since a long time before I started.

Down in my age category today too - damn these quick tourists ;)

Lovely morning in the South Lakes - bit of a chill but no ice and the fog lifted enough to give a proper atmospheric view up Windermere.

A lady in the W70-74 category at Harcourt Hill running her first Parkrun today.
Age grade of 92.39 '/, !
She does hold the national lady's V70 marathon record though at 3:42:42. It was a pleasure to be in the same event as such a star!
