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!

Hi guys,

Stupid question alert... does anyone know if the Great Barrow challenge counts as 4 marathon's or just 1 as it is technically 1 event?

If you can enter each day individually, then it's 4 events.

Looks like 4 to me. Like the Quadzilla - award for each day, another award for completing the lot.

Hi Lisrun... I entered it on the recommendation of a guy I got chatting to during a marathon but he said it might only count as 1 so I came on here to check.

Looking forward to it :-)

If you take a look at the 100MC calender you'll find the events which have already been approved as "counting" for the club statistics:
100marathonclub.org.uk

You'll see all four days of September's Great Barrow Challenge are listed there, indicating that each counts separately.

The easy rule is "if it's on the 100MC calendar then it counts". If it's not then please check the "Excluded Events" or do ask as the committee don't know about every single event! :-)
