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!

:-) My resemblance varies with how much I run

You'll often find my in my Fetch top at races, but at the moment I'm not a member of another club

Hi Jayfire, come join us on the 700 thread. Or pop into the mundane thread where we put all the boring bits of our lives. All welcome in both threads!

What mystifies me is when I say hi to someone in a fetch top at a race and ask what their fetch name is and they kind of look at me like I’m weird for asking. You’re wearing a fetch top you probably paid good money for which identifies you as a fetchie!

The first time I wore my Fetch top to a race was Southport 10k in Feb 2017 - I'd only been on Fetch for a couple of months - and I was struggling having gone out at a faster pace than I had trained. Someone went past and said "Come on now, Fetchie, don't be lazy!" which I loved :-)

Great to get all this positivity. The fetch family definitely brings out a smile, which when you are struggling in a race is a great lift! Fetchies be bold😊

I just love getting Fetchie shouted at me by random strangers during a race :-) whether accompanied by other words or not. Just the acknowledgement makes your heart tingle. heart

Thanks MF, I was going to ask where I could find these aforementioned Fetch tops but I have worked that one out now through my snooping around the site. Getting Fetchie shouted at me would be a pleasant change from the usual things I get called 😁

Got something to say?
