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!

Found an event close to me, and on a free running weekend - it is also for families, so I can do it with LB :-)

It was not a realistic ranking! It was the first badge event in the country in January after they changed over ranking systems! I was only good at very fast technically easy courses! So that is the sort of event I shall be looking for! :p

Disclaimer: I'm no where near as GFA as I used to be.

Right so we'll go for a technically challenging event then munnki - fast and technically easy doesn't suit me (see todays blog)
