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!

Calling all Cambridge runners can you identify this man?

It's very sad that he hasn't been missed yet, but that will help police/mnedics etc narrow down their search a bit.

I had a cramtag for a few years (I stopped when it got too involved with the COCO charity and I got inundated with requests for money) - I think I should wear start wearing my parkrun wristband (although I do always take my phone which has ICE data).

All kinds of reasons why someone might not be missed for a couple of days, particularly in a school half-term week.

That is so sad

The watch tag is a jolly good idea, that's the one thing I would never forget to wear on a run.

So desperately sad. Heard about this whilst away during the week. Has there been any more news? I hope by now that the poor chap has been identified, my thoughts are with those close to him.

There's nothing new on the Cambridge news site, but I don't think they update it at the wekend

I have been given a onelife ID by my partner. I have yet to order it. I often disappear off on my own (at least three times a week and often work alone in clients gardens) and he doesn't trust on emergency services calling the number programmed in my Garmin startup screen. I also don't often carry the Garmin, or the ICE details in my unlocked mobile... Must get on with that tag! There is room for allergies on there as well: wasps and diclofenac. Quite useful info if found collapsed somewhere!

You don't really think about how vulnerable life is...
