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!

LLanberis September 2002 - half Ironman 1hr 16 mins with 4 kayaks for escort as they were so concerned, had to stop and ask for space explaining I was in no distress just that I was shit.

Swashbuckler discussed

Both pail into insignificance after the ultimate swim of death, Newbury tri - 300 metre outdoor poor, mouthful of water on a turn and so much panic I had to purple rinse swim 200 metres as I panicked every time water hit my face.

Possibly the worst ever event(I had come 2nd the previous 2 years as I owned the bike course and the run was trail) as having battled the swim I punctured half way round the bike course while up on my own best time so recorded a DNF - you just think why did I bother :¬)

I don't bother now !!

You're all far braver than I am for tackling the swimming. Sounds very scary!
