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!

The 9:59 mile thread. How hard can it be?

I did the 10:10 with no warmup so with a little walk first? ... hopefully next week, and then I'll set a new target :-)

I'm way off at the moment but ran 9:10ish at the Westminster Mile last May. I'm entering this year hoping to get somewhere near again.

OK, I'll give it a go! I'm around 10:30 at the moment (as my fastest, not regular mile speed!) but I'll keep chipping away at it. It might take some time.

Perhaps someone needs to organise a special Fetch Mile event just to help Sharkie achieve this if there isn't one coming up soon?

Don't just lurk Duchess - join in! That 2012 PB of yours is soft. (You can't fool me - I read your most recent blog.)

Alice AND Gimme. EXCELLENT! *rubs hands with glee*

NB I said 'glee' not 'ghee'.

Unless you (ie anyone on the thread) is following a specific plan that says otherwise I have a cunning plan I'd like to share for next week. You'd have 'til Sunday to do it...

Just one sub 10 minute mile.
That's all I ask.
You can warm up for an entire marathon beforehand ...
