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've been led to believe that Hull will be on again but probably in 2014. There was a meeting regarding the event and apparently no sign of previous organisers ;-)

I'm going Milton Keynes again. Given that MK is not renowned as being the nicest of places, it was a lovely scenic course. Lets just hope the weather improves somewhat this year.

I think I entered London, not sure. Not that fussed either way, I think now I've got a bit more experience doing a race that busy and noisy would really grate on me.

Didn't you do Manchester last year on the same day anyway? I think the weather you had was just as bad. On the plus side, at least there was no chance of overheating!

lol. I just made myself laugh at my own stupidity.

I saw an email waiting teasingly in my inbox from none other than VLM. I squealed excitedly thing they had gone hi-tech this year and are notifying by email.

Imagine my crestfallen face if you will when I saw it was simply about running for charity if I get my ballot place.

I think half of Britain did Sioux. LN I would cherish that moment of excitement and use it to cushion the bitter blow of ballot rejection that is (probably) just over the horizon.
