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 kept thinking "if the weather is like this on race day I'll have a stiff bodied tantrum and head for the pub" during this morning's run :)

It won't be, Mrs W. It just won't be. 16c with the slightest breath of a cooling breeze coming off the sea, then warming up so we can sit in the sun and have a beer afterwards. Perfect.

I agree with most folks on here, my final 20 is 2 weeks before, then just reduce the mileage, Need my legs to be strong for the power station

I'm with Johnny on this. I'd like it to be between 5-10°C please. 16° is way to hot for a marathon.

More importantly, no wind! If there is any breeze, I'd like it coming off the sea to gently cool me in those final 3 miles as I pick up the pace… :)

Or a nice strong tail wind for the last 3 miles, that miraculously wasn't there when running towards the power station...
