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!

Are you popping back up to G2E, PH? Quite a lot of resurfacing on the towpath. Tunnel much the same. Talk of an interactive lighting experience in it for the future (I'm imagining disco lights :-)).

Think I said hi to ph and becca at start. Had good chat with a Canadian couple. And Neil Rutherford and some other speedies that I bizarrely caught up with. I've had 4 experiences of G2E
4. 2015. Was that one above 2015 G2E in prep for WHW. Very hard, flat run.
3. 2013. Running last 10 miles as guide with Blind Ken support Hazel McF (blind runner). She had to have a relay of guide runners, because obv no one runner in her club was able to tackle her level of ultra. :-O
2. 2010. Fetch supporting santababy, ultracat, pestomum and many, many more.
1. 2008. When I first started running, at that point on canal doing a 5 mile run and catching a guy with mud on his legs who, upon my enquiry, said he'd run from Glasgow (45 miles at that point) and this being my first ever time I had heard of an ultra!

A wee history for you! :-) G
