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

JPK No idea what I can do at this short length. Based on my 5 mile pb (35mins), maybe 6min something? result: Got inside 6 mins!!! :) Went with the 6 min and less group that I think made me run quicker than I would have.

keets Went with the sub 6 minute group against my better judgement after much coaxing from Mrs Keets. Hung on at the end and came in suprisingly under 6 minutes. Whoever said the third lap is the worse was right. I'm still coughing. :) Big thanks to Ruth and everyone who helped out. Really enjoyed the day and the cakes, muffins, do-nuts, biscuits... When is the next one? :)

manicstreetpounder 5.30 might be an optimistic target, given that I've just started seriously upping the mileage, training for a marathon...but we'll see...Very pleased with the time - thanks to whoever it was I tagged onto the whole way round! Big thanks to Ruth for organising and everyone else who helped from me and my kids who really enjoyed it too!!!

Rach E Recently did a not-quite-flat-out 1500m in 5:04 so would like to get close to 5:20. ***UPDATE*** Had no speed, ran badly and am a bit gutted I just can't do the mile. I enjoyed the day though and was more pleased with my pacing than my mile.

RFJ Both Jnr and I will there for this, Just back from the fetch mile, Jnr thrashed me... 5:49 to my poor 6:03, I had a poor 2nd lap again. (1:29, 1:34, 1:32 and 1:24) lack of concertration. Jnrs time is actually better than my PB now.....

Running Beer First mile so didn't know how fast I could do it. Jogged round at the back. Now I have done that hopefully I will be able to start picking up my pace. Fun day out all in all. Thanks for organising it.
