Bless him, he did leave your sports drink and gel with me though (I felt so sorry for him, what a lovely man you've got Baroness!!  ). As soon as we learned that you'd finished I handed the drink and gel to 2 other (female) runners, they were so very grateful, so they found a good home and I hope that you don't mind? I'm so sorry that you had such a bad time by the end, am so proud of you to keep going though, so well done you. Hope to see you next time, will make up for the missed cheers & hugs than.  xx
Ps. There were a few other beer bottles amongst the runners, they all got massive cheers from me, Mr Baroness then explained to me that you would be a loooot smaller than them. Whoops.

Well done for doing that Cloggy I think that was the best thing you could have done. They would have been no use to me anyway even if I had managed to get them at Fetchpoint so I hope they helped those ladies get to the end a bit easier.
(and yes I know I am very lucky to have Mr BL around  most people can't understand how he puts up with me )

Hi everyone.
I'm afraid I was useless this year in keeping my support team up to date with what i was wearing. I ran the Boston marathon on Monday then dropped my iPhone down the toilet so had no way of emailing my costume to you all. Anyway I was dressed as Robin Hood and I managed to shout to you all both times I passed the Fetch station, so thanks for all you support even though you didn't know who I was as I passed you.

HAH, but I remember "a" Robin Hood!! Hope you got enough cheers back to keep you going, hope even more that you've had a good race?! Poor iPhone, was it insured?

I already thanked everyone on the Fetchpoint thread, but a special shout out to team 2! As I said there, I got my sub 3 dream by 13 seconds. I was still behind schedule at 22 miles, and the fetchpoint effect definitely gave me the power to dig in, and just make it. Huge cheers, lots of high 5s - I think there must be something magic about wearing a fetch vest!
thanks to you all, and especially to cloggy! I saw some fetchpointers in Chandos afterwards and got to thank them - battlecat, enthusiastic and others, but sorry for the rest of you whom I missed, I had to rush to catch my eurostar back home!

I'm really so pleased for you idlewild, very well done you!! Great that you've had such a good day and managed to make a dream come true. I didn't make it to Chando's either sadly, had two pups that needed me back home...
There is definitely something very magical about Fetch!!

LOL! I did consider to use the word "pups" instead of "puppies" but thought nah, now I think I should have.
