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 have a sneaky suspicion that Running on Empty will be back next year! I think we could have got at least one more lap in if I hadn't had a slight fueling issue. Running through the woods whilst eating porridge is one of the weirder things that I have ever done :) but it worked! Overwhelmed with my sense of achievement today - 54 miles is a long way :)

I even spotted the porridge pot and wondered why it was in the middle of the wood at 6km!

I think TR24 is as much a mental challenge as a physical one. I still cant believe how I managed 6 laps despite no running in May and only 20ish miles in june due to an injury. Ran more miles yesterday than I done don in the rest of the month of July. Bizarrely it also seems to have cured the last vestiges of my plantar fascitis (sp?) injury. I have to say doing the last lap as a team was fab. I definitely didnt have the mental capacity to go round again on my own but as a team the lap seemed to whizz by despute the screaming quads, hamstrings, calfs!

Just want to point out that I left it next to a sign and a big pile of sis gel wrappers - didn't just dump it!
