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!

Winter XC and road league races might rekindle some appetite to try to dip under 18:14 from earlier on this year. Still quite a way off that at the moment, not even sure I could break 19 at the moment.

Nice work Gobi.

Gobi started 2019 last week.

I started two months ago!

No racing for me but did my longest run ever (13.57 miles).

I ran a 17.55 on Sunday for only my second sub 18 of the year. Was a tough trail 5k.

Only managed 19.16 though today on a tough parkrun in 30mph winds. My course pb is 18.45 and did 2 “sessions” through the week so legs struggled. But more to come in the next few months hopefully.

Ran a 17:53 parkrun a couple of weeks ago, which was a relief - didn't want to end the year without a sub-18 parkrun (although I've gone sub-18 in a handful of 5K road races). Still feel I have a sub 17:30 in me, waiting to be realised, but everything has to come together on the day.
