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!

Love the bluebells and house viewing newts.

I ran a 5k route today which I thought would make a good 'winter' course for our parkrun - we are pretty waterlogged on part of the course at the moment and our current 'alternative' only avoids a very small amount of the wet course. Basically I have put in an extra loop in the start/finish area which allows us to shorten the course at the other end and avoid the worst area but our ED has deemed this a 'significant' change rather than a 'tweak' (which was what I had assumed it would be seen as) that will have to be submitted to HQ as if it is a whole new event. So I guess it might be in place by next winter which seems a very long time for something that really we need to do now. Still it's now in the review by the team stage so the start of a newt at least!

New recipe time! Greens & Mac Cheese from Jamie Oliver's veg book. Just put it in the oven and I have to say it looks lush!

Ooh! I'm it!
Thanks WA, the lido is magic, it kept me smiling throughout Thursday.

No real newt for me today, although I did go out earlier with the dog than usual, am definitely enjoying the lighter mornings.

A newt for me in the summer will be doing my first ultra in the “Last One Standing / Backyard Ultra” format. So tonight, my running buddy and and I did a bit of preparation for it. We ran a roughly 4.16mile loop that started and finished at my house, then we rested for the remaining time that took us up to 60mins then headed out again to repeat the process. We just did three laps tonight but it’s certainly a weird feeling finishing the lap and waiting to head out again. For the real event we’ll be desperately refuelling, changing clothes etc in those hanging around minutes and deciding if we can face another lap 😂

This is the one I’ve entered runyarocket.com

Most of you know the score. Much in the bizarre way Easter has come to mean Chocolate, Lent is mainly thought of as an opportunity to Give Up Chocolate. At least until Easter. You know what I mean, 'What are you giving up for Lent?' * I say NO to this. Away with the hair shirts and the deprivation. Let's embrace change and the NEW. Spring is a time of renewal - and restoration.

Soooooo..... you don't have to take up indoor sky diving like my partner's 90 year old mot...
