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

I'm glad I'd already done some big city races as otherwise the crowds could have been quite off-putting. I will probably do it again at some point but probably not next year.

Si, I don't see the pic you're talking about, so can't help with naming I'm afraid. (and now tha page has stopped loading :( )

she runs for cake
Hello everyone! Sounds like some stonking times from the fetchies, brilliant going conisdering the crowd and the heat, too. Bit of a mare for this half of Team Cake yesterday. I've learned the hard way not to try and run when you're under the weather, but Pesto was an absolute hero who kept me going.

Apologies to Kev Scone and his friends, who told us we were "norty, norty girls" as we ran behind them being inappropriate ;)

Good to meet up with Fat Dave yesterday :) Sorry I missed everyone else!

I will run again next year, as the GNR has been good to me the past three occasions, it's a good weekend away.

Especially if I can book the Silverlink Travelodge again- that was spot on.

Well done NR, by the way- that's a decent result!
