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!

I did my NENYD as well at Higginson, Marlow. Good to bump into Goofee resplendent in his Fetch tee as well. Nice fast course and not too congested. Was a lovely morning.

Little bit of muddy cross-country included in today's Leicester Victoria parkrun, normally all on tarmac. A detour across the grass was needed where the council are pratting about taking forever to finish off a cycle path across the park.

I don't like mud anyway, and currently have a dodgy foot that didn't like the uneven surface at all. Still, better that parkrun went ahead rather than being cancelled.

Cafe was giving a free mince pie with every hot drink today :-)

Thank you Daisy and Dvorak, should make your replies into one of the FAQ that’s helpful.

Feeling antsy today because wife was out early so I couldn’t parkrun with the kids in the house. Was feeling fit and up for a pb attempt too.

Very nice to see you, chunkywizard, and well done on finishing 5th!*

Will see you again at Dinton on NYD :-)

was just looking where I might get a parkrun in over the Xmas holidays and saw that there’s an event at Pwllheli now.

6 volunteers, 2 runners yesterday 😲

Apparently the padlock to the area where we keep all our kit was changed without our knowledge - yesterday's RD discovered this at 8.11am but still managed to put on the event - probably helped by the fact that he's a PE teacher and has a ready supply of cones at his house!

Another quiet one depending on where you're staying is Pont y Bala, that is quick though, three cone turhs, apart from that flat and flat out.
