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 1/2 marathon Multi Terrain

This is the second time of doing this and hold a PW for 1/2 maras on this course.

Well it was a little bit hot, in fact I thought about putting a scewer in me so that I could roast as I ran........

Was only treating this as a trg run as I have already got 2nd place in our Multi Terrain Champs with no chance of getting first or being caught.

Also with the week I have had and Halstead Marathon 3 weeks ago, this would be my first long run back.

Basically got to 3 miles and was already suffering in the heat, by the time I had got to 9 miles I was in agony in the fields which were rock hard and ankle breaking, took a good fall as well at 9m, bit dazed so sat on grounfd for a few minutes to gather myself.

Onwards and upwards to a mile long gradient, just what I did not need, then the long run in for home where I actually felt good for the first time in the race.

But really struggled overall and crossed the line in 82nd from about 300 / 350 in a disappointing 1:46:25, not quite the PW of 3 years ago (but only by 20 secs)

Was in tatters afterwards - reckon a bit of heat exhaustion as was totally knackered.

But Im back with a long run in the back, I wouldnt call it a race more of a running BBQ....... Well done as well....
