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!

What a spectacular day.......so good to put real faces to "avitars" was really good to finally chat to you all......shiney new pb for the mile...very pleased with that.........unofficially 5:19 just waiting for the official times to come up. the second running of the 100mtrs I was completely kn*ckered, so I claim my time for the first 100 - 0:01 according to Sarah - so with that I'm now just waiting for my call up to the olympic squad :-)

Barky you did us proud again, you're an absolute star. I think everyone enjoyed today.

Blown away by the number of people that came along..........we can't wait until the end of the year for another gathering can we..........???

FS the end of the year???
I'm sure we can persuade Barky to do another before that!

Beast do you really think the spikes made much difference??!! That's the 1st time I have been on a track and seeing as FS hasn't got Hermitage to build him a nice track I can't justify buying some spikes just to do the Fetch mile!!

Good organisation, and great running everyone. Just back from a slow 4 miler to ease the stiff calf following them 100m races. Interestingly at the minute I cannot put my time in for that as it says 'thats a bit quick, are you sure you have got the hours and minutes the right boxes?' Thats got to be a good thing right :-)

Pleased with the 1 mile too, I had it in my head that I wanted to do under 5.40 (from PB of 5.46) and so would set off doing splits of 84. Turned out to do 81, 85, 86 and 72, so it was all down to the last lap!

Great to see so may happy Fetchies around. So what do we call a 'group' of fetchies? Maybe a collection :-)
