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!

Great North Run

"wasn't last year the first one with chips?"

They've had them every year I've done it and this is my 5th.

If it doesnt then those chips can go onto your laces. Undo top couple of lace loops - pass lace through loops on chip and re-lace your shoe as normal.

the chips can go onto your laces just remember that you have to be able to remove them at the end A bit of a challenge when you're knackered and have knotted your laces well so they don't come undone, been there done that, round the ankle is easier

About page 100,there was the beginnings of a list of runners and identifying characteristics. That's kind of died a death amongst chat about the actual race.

If you want identifying, you might like to join the group that I've started, the link being at the top of this page. So far, only Meglet and I are there...
