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!

Thank you!

Yes Larkim, I did spot you towards the end of the race and you were ahead of me, belated hello! I wanted to catch up and come over to you and say hello but the treacle wouldn't let me. You might have heard me making "ugh!" noises as I was really struggling at that point

Thanks Velociraptor, sorry I didn't get to meet you but maybe in future?

I shall be there next year. The fee is paid. Hopefully without the, erm, pain in the rear and the Portaloo bloodbath episode.

Think this is you at Holt, Benny? I think the noise there was as close as we'd be getting to the Tower Bridge experienced down in London!

Yes, that was me with my hands in the air!

I still thought the wall was just a conspiracy theory at that point so was still feeling buoyant...

I made the mistake of hunting myself out on the finish line video. Lord, I look terrible. And I thought I was in better shape than many at that point!!

I’ve seen the pics of myself at the finish which don’t look too scary 🙄

Having seen my finish line photos, I'm reasonably confident I don't ;)

Been a weird day today - seem to have spent most of it yawning and fidgeting between sofas whilst being grateful the rain we had yesterday was nothing like that we've had today.

I did manage to do a bit of photo stalking and deduced that it was larkim who shouted to me in the out&back stretch. I also managed a very careful recovery shuffle to clear the fetchpoint bugs that accumulated over the weekend but that's about it exertion-wise. Hope to feel a bit less sleepy tomorrow.
