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!

Bump - as it is a new month :-)

I had a flash of an idea last night. Seeing as we have 2hours of the track, I thought how about a bit of fun after the main races! How about some relay races - 4 peeps per team - but each team must have a kid in it??? THIS IS ALL IN THE NAME OF FUN!!!

Just bouncing this up again:-)

Welcome on board Andy. All Fetchies are welcome, it is just the cance to run round a track 4 and a bit times, have a bit of fun and meet other who love running. We have the track for 2 hours this time - more time to run (althou for some, more time to play in the sand pit ;-)).

Monday 5th May, 10am -12
Cost about £5 - this will vary depending on numbers (all I want is to cover my costs of hiring the track) - so ore the merrier and cheaper all round!

Iris +1 ?

Adults: 19 adults
Kids: 10 kids
Roughly???

Basic idea of a time table is slowly forming:
1) The Iris Belated Birthday 400m for the kiddies
2) The Barks Belated Birthday Bash Mile (for runners slower than 8mins)
3) The Firestarter Storm Birthday Charge (for runners between 6-8mins)
4) The TR Early Birthday 'Lets woop this Mile' run (for the speed merchants)

After all this, we might have a few fun relays - 4x400m

Cakes & Choc are a must, aling with a smile and there to have fun!

Cheers

*looks confused*
if a track is 400m and a mile is 1600m how come it's 4 and a bit laps?

A mile is not 1600m EvilPixie, it is 1609.344 metres. Sadly!
