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!

Just to throw it into the mix, there is a park (which also has about 6 football pitches next to it) next to running track, which is just off the A38 in Burton. There is also a reasonable Bill Brewer pub 1 mile away with 2 meals for a tenner. Although there is the Brewery museum too. We could even treat Lord Fetch to a drive by the Marmite factory :-)

...put Shobnall Leisure Complex into Google Maps to check see the area.

Quite funny this cos last night I started thinking of doing another Kinder type thingy too but doing a picnic where everyone brings something and we all share it at the end of the run... :-)

July/August would be favourite... :-)
