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!

Hi McN! I'm doing this and really want a PB - or if the weather permits, a sub 1.30 run. Fingers crossed! ;) :-)

Any joy on a number yet? Have you tried the Wesham running club website?

Oh, it's very much a PB-possible course, I feel, depends how you feel about an afternoon race, and yes, as you say the weather could be an issue (been veeeery warm last 2 years, but some strange folk like that ;)). Got my fingers crossed tightly for you, young padawan :)

Still number-hunting, it's not going well. Tried the Wesham running site, emailed the number transfer lady, I am 60th, yes, SIXTIETH, on the waiting list, and been advised to keep hunting elsewhere and not keep my hopes up :( Either there's even more demand this year, or people just aren't getting injured like they used to ;) Am going to keep hunting, and if I can't get one in time, I'll probably go along anyway to support (may see if Podkin's taking photos again and keep her company, a mini Fetchpoint of sorts).

Once more, anyone got a number going?! :)

Just realised that this is a club race for me, so any hopes of taking it easy and having a laugh are gone. Damn.

I guess it's another sub-90 attempt for me, to prove that Wilmslow wasn't a fluke. It's gonna be a scorcher :)

I'm warning you guys, if I don't get a number, I fully intend putting all my energies into mentalist Fetchpointing, I'm thinking water guns, abuse, chucking jelly babies... *hopes this puts the fear of the Lord into runners, to find me a number* ;)

Waterguns? Jelly Babies?

I think you've sealed your fate.

I'm used to getting abuse, mind.
