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!

Hi and welcome to Fetch! My hint would be take it slowly, stay in Fetch for inspiration and keep going! There are some very helpful and friendly threads on here for new runners, and I'm going to plug the SAP club thread - SAP meaning slow and proud - handy for new runners and those who just aren't that fast. :-)

:) Sounds good - but don't be afraid to make a note of where you get to - it's very satisfying to look back on - you will be amazed how much you improve :)
