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!

OS - It's the 16th not the 15th. Whilst the 15th was originally put forward, the track's not available so it's switched to the 16th. That's right Barky isn't it?

Could we also do perhaps a mini-Fetch challenge for the young 'uns, i.e. 400m? I'm sure my 6yo would love to do that (my 9yo would be forced to 'love to do it' as well!). We could all buy a prize (say a Mars Bar) for all mini-Fetch competitors.

JRD - my 5 year old is doing the mile as well!!! :)
In fact there may be more mini-fetchies than growed-up ones at the West Mids :)
My 12yr old will be in the top couple as well! His mile time (based on his 2k race pace) starts with a 6:**

Mornin Boycie.
The Ragin Bull's exact words were

"You can do it if you want but you wont catch me beastin my way round a track in the middle of winter"

Think we can take that as a no;-)
Oh yeah....the laptop has landed:-):-):-)
I wondered where Ally2 s name was?
