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!

True, would need timekeepers or someone to note who was cheating, which does sound a bit farcical.

MK5000 have it right, strong clear communication in advance, and just following the rules as they are intended.

I fear the Reebok Run Fast Pro is discontinued. Probably the end of super light carbon free flats as don't think any elite are after them :-(

I've ordered some dragonfly spikes. Being a big size meant only my size was in stock. I'm still thinking I'll be sticking with my normal spikes for this season (would be nice to PB at all the distances I do in normal spikes) but I want to know what they feel like and unless they feel really odd I think it's pretty much inevitable I'll be wearing them in the future. Certainly in the top seeded races in track meetings, they are more and more visible.

Gobi - I believe your last track race was in some different Nikes? Have you trained in them yet?

I probably do enough racing to do some races in normal vs DFs over a season. In fact there's likely an ideal opportunity to do that this season over 1500 with one on 11 Aug and then another at the track league on 15 Aug. Should have a good field in the 11 Aug one so the ideal way round is standard on 11 Aug, DFs for league.

5000 is the one where I'd be conflicted atm as there's likely only one more attempt at that this season.

Sportsshoe only had 12, which is my size. Another option is pro direct, not checked their stock though.

What do triathletes use mostly? Are there carbon-plate type tri shoes? There is no way I could get into my Next% quickly enough for it to pay off and I thought they might rip apart with lock laces.
