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

1.54.22 which is ok ish. Bad training lately so a new pb is a nice result.

Will let others tell you their results themselves. Warm conditions but some great Fetchie running. Great to meet so many - and to renew some acquaintances. :)

Cakey was quite unwell, but finished on a reasonable time with Pesto alongside throughout.

Still stuck in the car park.

I do like this race :-)

A hard run for Team Cake, but it showed me how much I've improved as a runner since last time I did GNR. A course best for me, at a very easy and sustainable effort level.

Next year we're getting golden bonds, so that we don't have to get charity places and can pull out if necessary.

Hey DeeGee what a result!!!! Well done to everyone :)

It was lovely to meet so many Fetchies today, esp the ones who whooped as they passed me in my Fetch shirt :) and sorry I missed the photo - misjudged the traffic :(

I managed 2.34.04, bit slower than I'd really have liked but a distinct lack of training was to blame so I new it wouldnt be brilliant so had decided to do it for the sheer hell and to enjoy it which I did :):):):):)

My calf held out nicely but I now have a pain in my hip - maybe I'm not built to run ;P
