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!

Wonderful race :) I really really enjoyed it - tough going in places with the wind, but the scenery is simply stunning.
Was great to meet up with the Fetchies beforehand - hope y'all had a good run :)

It was much harder work that I was expecting.

Not sure I am a fan for running on sand! ;-) It is hard to judge distance and the headwind was not helpful.

It was good to meet up with some top Fetchies and clock up my longest run for two monts or more.

Absolutely fantastic. Certainly was harder than i thought too. My wife was on the Boulmer water station so i got a bottle of water and a kiss. That (and a gel) spurred me on and the last 2 miles on the sand, believe it or not, was great. Was under 2 hours which i'm really happy with, but just waiting for the results to come through this evening.

I enjoyed it too. The head wind was a killer for me it slowed me down. Thats my excuse and I'm sticking to it. It was great to meet some fetchies aswell. Hope to see you all soon. If you are out there ha! ha! you did an excellent time for someone who was just going to talk about footie and lager.

This is the best race ever! even though I had to walk the last three miles with a crocked ankle - I still had a fab time... Just such a beautiful part of the world - and great to meet so many smiley fetches too :-)

It was a very hard race. Not sure if I enjoyed it or not. My finishing place helped a bit though.

The results are on the Alnwick Harriers Website now.
