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!

How was your run today?

Excellent. 10.5 mile LSR - another longest ever for me. Was rainy and cool and felt pretty comfortable; until I stopped!

Not good, was really aching from pilates and Wii Fit but went anyway. Managed to run for longer than ever to start which was fabulous, but the heat soon got to me and I slowed right down. I wanted to go on until I had done 28 maybe 30 minutes but at 22 minutes my legs decided they simply wouldn't work anymore lol

don't know how far yet, but it was a cracking hour and a bit around the hills South of Clun with Dazza35. Rain started to come down in the last mile so it wasn't too bad. Cracking views. Feeling loads better than last run out.

Marathon Lads
Our classic weekend of Back to back Half Marathons

This weekend saw us have a tremendously fun weekend, the schedule would be gruelling, and time would be tight - we have done plenty of back to back runs like this - but they were all morning jobs - with the rest of Saturday to prepare and rest etc - but not this time

First up was Saturday evening’s Gloucester Half marathon - comfortably in 2:03

it was rural and severely testing in places, The race set off at 6 PM - we found it tranquil and peaceful - gliding along nicely - with little trouble, except just finding the last couple of inclines obviously difficult
We clocked a nice 2:03 for it, I was well pleased with that - obviously I could have raced it to a good sub 2 hour run, but I knew to save some for the following morning

So, it was quickly get changed , pack stuff - including wheelchair, and away home at 20:30, 1 hour 30 approx drive home- feed Phillip, get him to bed - unpack car, change and replenish food bag,

So at about 11:30pm I got to bed, I didn’t sleep at all well,

So, Sunday morning came and Milton Keynes Half Marathon - bit toughish in 2:17

So, 5:15 am my alarm went off- it was up - bathroom, pack food , pack car - dress Phillip - and off on the 90 minute drive to Milton Keynes, I was tired - but just got on with it all - we arrived, had our cereals , gave Phillip his medication, toileted him and changed him for the run-

I then got changed and had coffee after chatting with people best I could as Phillip is demanding, so at 10:00am the race went off -

It was a good run, mostly cycle paths and pavements and underpasses with some bumpy canal walkways - very bumpy where the tree roots has lifted the tarmac-for me pushing the wheelchair it was a tough run- made tougher still after last nights run - but we finished happily in 2:17
The underpasses and especially the canal path made my back hurt

The weekend as a whole was worth it and tremendous fun - I like other times on double weekends have questioned just what is left in me running pushing Phillip

It was great meeting people old and new - a big thank you to those who said hello or and chatted

But then, I feel proud, happy, and good, I think, well, I’m sure there’s a bit left in me yet
