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!

Eight. Three half marathons and five parkruns. I expect to get up to 15 by the end of the year.

5 plus half a dozen Park Runs and one DNS. One more likely this year.
Lots wished for/planned for next year but Mrs Star will veto most of them!

Parkrun = race. Whatever they say for insurance purposes. There are results with times and they are published = race. End of discussion.

DNS doesn't count, Cstar!

DNFs are a grey area in this, because you officially started the race and appear on the results... Need to think if you can count them or not.. Probably not though....

I think there's a decent chance that my 76 miles at L100 was as far as my other outings combined :-P

20 parkruns. 1 10k. 1 Fetch mile.

Probably 6 or 7 more parkruns, 2 more 10ks, and one more Fetch mile to go.
So 22 so far, likely to be 30ish in all.

This year has seen me do more parkruns than usual, as a deliberate policy, but fewer other races.

13, according to Fetch (and he wouldn't lie to me). 2 mara's, one half, five five-milers, 2x 10k, 1x 10 mile, and one very special 7,250 metre race. You've got to love those random Spanish town races you can pick up on holiday (and you can find them in advance on http://www.runedia.com/curses/?lang=en). I've also got another two five milers to go before it's all over

About This Thread

Maintained by rf_fozzy
Title says it all - how many races have you done this (calendar) year.

Races are anything that produces published results (either paper or online or anything similar) with times and/or positions.

This therefore includes (but not limited to): Road Races, Fell Races, Cycle Races, Triathlons, Aquathlons, Duathlons, Parkruns (whether you actually "raced" them or not), Orienteering races, Track races (i.e. any T&F), Cross Country, Trail Races, Sportives, Adventure races, Mountain Marathons, Crits, time trials etc.....

Races with multiple stages with an overall result (a la tour de France) are separate races if there are results published for each day. So, 2 day Mountain Marathons are 2 races.

Adventure races where it is continuous = 1 race.

Parkruns are Races!! End of.
