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!

A good day; really enjoyed it!

I was very pleased with my result. Stella ran very well indeed, we had bit of a din dong but he ran away from me on the last 4 miles or so. Nice one mister!

Brilliiant to see everyone today. I hope everyone from darn sarf had a lovely time. Such a fantastic event this where everyone knows everyone and a great family atmosphere. Looking forward to next year already.

Well done everyone.

Mrs E loved it. Her mate fell over, they ate lots of cake, and saw lots of Fetchies.

I'm planning on doing it next year. Sounds a lot more fun than a frigging marathon. :)

To Stella and all the other Fetchies well done. I was that guy in the Orange Gag and the Blue hat who kept popping up to support the wife , she ran well knocking 35mins off her 2007 time.

It was good to see all of you.
Wish me luck in my first road race at Dronfield in the morning.

Ouch.

I hurt.

Really shouldn't have tried keeping up with Ian & Stella at the start, muchly regretted that over the last 10k - great run chaps.

Well done everyone, and thanks for the encouragement kwaka & Edale.

If you wore a fetch top or were running with a fetchie I should have a photie of you at various points on the course. Will post them probably tomorrow.

I really enjoyed today despite not running and it was great to meet everyone today. I really must concentrate more when people tell me their names though.

Very saddle sore now. Hoping to get back to running next week as there was no reaction to the hamstring.
