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!

RFJ Should be a PB by a long way, Fetch PB was a xc event, at 49 mins - plan to blitz that and expect around 42 mins

Well got what I expected a fetch PB - had a 2k warm up, then hung around for what seemed ages, no one knew the route or even how many laps there were till 2 mins before the start - all a case of follow the bike.....

Started near the front as was only a small field, wanted to go of easy, but never happened and rushed through the firsk K in 3:49, no major dramas and was sitting in 9th place as we came back into the park, and soon made that up to 8th, hit 2k in 4:05, that felt better, but knew it would be hard to maintain this pace, especially with some of the tight twists and turns in the park. 1 guy came flying past me at 2.5k (was the eventually winner) so I dropped back to nineth, but soon gained a place again at the close to the lap and hit 3k in 4:09, which included a nast boggy bit for about 150m.

Hit 4k in 4:05 and 5k 4:14 without losing any more places, but as I approch the end of the 2nd lap and past the 6k mark in 4:00 I am passed again to drop me into 9th, no hope of closing more down as no one else in sight, have also a large gap behind me. So as I move into the last lap the legs and all available holes are at maximum intake and output and Im knackered......

All I want to do is hold on to this place and get to the finish line, I drop to a 4:14, then a 4:19 for Ks 7 and 8 and am feeling the hurt now, some how pick it up for a 4:08 9th K then I think the last K was short as it registered only 3:36.

So my 1st 10K for 10 months results in a 40:44 (I think that the last K was a bit short, but even so am happy with the outcome - a nice big fetch PB but still a min of my best ever.
