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!

Mansion House hill!!

sounds really creepy that! is there an old, dark, run down haunted mansion on the top of the hill with a grave yard in the garden, lots of strange goings on, thunder and lighting and your mum and dad telling you to never go there?

i wouldn't want to run past that either! :-)

Its the home of 'The Harvester!' - Don't venture into his fields as he'll reap you like his crops and serve you up to hungry customers....

Serves nice pint of Carlsberg too :)

I would like it there too but there are not many paths in Prospect Park, just the one through the middle and the one up the hill. Not sure going around the outside of the park (like the RJ handicap race) would work if there were 100+ runners.

Marking out a course each week on the grass would be a lot of work too.

Mr. K.
Great race reporting on the recent runs as usual :-)

Who is Mark Read? Is he the chap who always seems to wear black?
