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!

I have been looking, however, and noticed that i can actually get to Gin Pit for the first day of the double, from Grimsby Town, on the morning of the race itself (though I have to get up at 4 to do so), and can get to the start from Wigan or Manchester by public transport on the Sunday morning. I don't know whether that was by Malc's design, or just a happy coincidence...

It means I can do the double for the same price as an overnight and big city marathon.

on transport ... I rely mainly on trains and buses to get to races, or try and car share. Car sharing could be encouraged more by organisers, who have access to folks' home address and have the possibility to put people in touch with each other.

I'm still chuntering about transport. Races need to publish up-to-date entry lists as a matter of course. Just because nobody else in my club's doing it, doesn't mean there aren't any Wolds Vets or Caistor running it.

I'm going to run a huge PB/moderate PB/absolute personal disaster* at Mablethorpe

*delete as appropriate.
