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!

Didn't get in with that ballot. Holding out hope now for the general ballot.

Anyone now the numbers who apply for the general ballot usually VS the number of non-charity ballot places available?

Will be doing my 16th this year. Luckily I didn't have to use that paper's ballot as wouldn't enter then. Got my entry through being a Great North Run member.
