Evening there folks, I've been thinking about putting on another, long overdue, Fetch Midlands Mile with the option of maybe doing a few other short distances too (800m, 400m, 100m). The only problem is the track we used last time at the Wolves Uni campus in Walsall will be being dug up by the time I was looking at doing it! I've contacted Aldersley (Wolverhampton) and they do hire out the track but it's quite expensive so was wondering if anybody else had ideas for a location and also if I could get a rough idea of willig participants to see how viable any costs are. Cheers, G. |

Hi Gooner, I really enjoyed the Fetch Midlands mile. I'd love to come along to an event but sorry with workload and family commitments wouldn't have time to help with the organisation of one. There was one event at the track in Sutton Coldfield but I don't have contact details. Don't know who has. Cheers, Ness x |

eL Bee! arranged the Sutton Coldfield mile events. This is the place runtrackdir.com (Depending on when it was, we might be able to come for a reunion.) |

I'm happy organising as long as there's the interest. V'rap, would you mind asking Mr Bee if he remembers how much that track cost please? |

There was plenty last time, maybe all the Midlanders have stopped Fetching?

I'm not running at the moment, but if it was later in the year could be interested. If it's earlier I could possibly help with timekeeping etc...

No idea, Gooner, but it was at least seven years ago so the price will be out of date.
