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

Batmouse, just do what srfc does and duck under earlier. If it's like last year, the security's really lax as soon as the starting gun goes.

Oh, and last year I was in J and I was *not* a walker :-P ;-)

Saffron, no you can't walk - sharpen your elbows and fight your way through the walkers in the lower pens :) My pleasure will be seeing how many from the White and Orange zones I can pass :) :)

I am not intending to PB, but will certainly try to get around in 2 hours. Mind you, I'm doing the Derwentwater Trail this weekend (aka World Bog Snorkelling Champs!) so i may have trench foot to contend with!
