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!

Are you running the race that starts in Charing auburnette? I would have been marshalling at that race if I wasn’t doing virtual London (I’m not doing mine at a real race).

Just received this response - had to laugh:

More information will be available next week which will include what to do if you cannot use the app. Please bear with us whilst we finalise these details.

I have replied that it may be a little too late by then.

Would be funny if it wasn't annoying LMH.

This looks like a good option for people wanting a bit of company for their runs:

Got my number and pins at the weekend.

Also a piece of card from Eliud and a booklet with recipes inside.

Why is there always such a 'thing' about recipes + cooking at large events and in running mags?

The recipe booklet is a little bridge between this year's run and Flora taking over again from next year ;)

I've responded to a request for "real" London Marathon experiences and photos for my running club's newsletter. I can provide "How Not To Run Your First Marathon" and "How Not To Attempt A Marathon PB". Neither of these was the one I did with a tibial stress fracture. And it occurred to me that a good target for Sunday might be to run the virtual marathon faster than my fastest actual London marathon.

When do we expect this app to now be released. It we pups be nice to be able to give it a trial run.

Wonder if kipchoge will have his phone and back up battery charger.
