Badger ... I found myself setting out down Milton Road at 11:45 and realising that I wasn't going to make it, so headed back home disappointed. I just got back from a meeting in US and jet lag took its toll this-morning. If you want to meet up for an alternative mile along the Cam let me know!

Sitting here feeling a bit sad - you'll all be running round that track now ...

*sniffs and sighs pathetically* :-(

Hi All. A big thank you to everyone for mucking in & coping with the cold. The children were brilliant. It went really well with excellent timekeeping & recording. 20 people ran the mile. We hope to have another Fetch Eastern 1 mile challenge in the summer - prob late Sat afternoon one w/e when the track is usually available & we can have a Fetch bbq social at the track afterwards so watch this space.

R.T. organised the post race pub meal to perfection & it was lovely to chat to new & old Fetchies.

We've just got home, very tired but had a lovely day:-) Great to meet everyone. Our Shar had a good time and was so excited, one of her teeth fell out! ( it was very wobbly anyway!)

Very tempted to claim the gloves as I quite fancied them but no, they weren't mine!

Evening all!

What great fun we had... big thanks to BM and RT for the fab organising... and to Forest Faerie's fishfinger sandwich for providing the entertainment!

Good to meet some Fetchies for the first time, and of course to renew some other old rivalries...

Brilliant job with the prizes etc RT... :)

My girls had a great time, so we should certainly do it all again - in the warm this time!
