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!

Yep, me too, so excited in fact that I forgot to transfer the money required for our remortgage this morning!! So for the first time in weeks I've had something else to occupy my mind today!

Watching the Dublin race unfold has really got me up for it though!

MF ... don't forget your brain!!!

Ok so now i a serious offer! I would like to PB on sunday ... meaning to run around 2.55 or faster, however i think i have got a lot more chances to do it if someone paces me or runs with me?
I have seen quite a few people of 2.50 standard planning to run in 2.55, any one willing to give me a 'hand' or we could even have a little group? How does that sound?

Mr Jigs I know I have offered to pace at sub 3, but after my PB on sunday and the fact that I was racing without painkiller for the first time in 6 weeks I am feeling strong .... hope you don't mind???

Sub 3 is only a pipe dream for me I'm afraid, even sub 3:15 may be a little bit beyond me.

I'm off for massage tonight.....

I wanted to do some gentle slow runs on the tread milll this week. Does that make the massage tonight pointless?

MF Have you got your macmillan top?
