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!

Morning

Enjoy the cross-training @alehouse , bit damp here at the moment for that.

Hope the race went well @Wabo

Sensible regarding the racing on Monday @Dustin . Do you have any plans for the rest of the year now?

Which ultra do you have this weekend @cackleberry ?

Lyrics: no idea - low score for me on the current topic.

What: not a great deal probably, maybe a walk
Why: OH is coming out of hospital later so need to get him settled back in
Last rest: Monday

Morning all
Lyrics oh yes
I don't know who remembers two years ago I did my one and only dnf. It was the race I revisited last night. They had a tail runner and two years ago I was last and he kept talking to me, so much that I told him I wasn't doing the last lap. Anyway last night I set off and behind me heard him telling two women, I'm here tail runner for your entertainment!!! All I knew was I had to step on it and get away from him. Which I did and finished in 51 mins. It was 4.8 miles. I didn't see him on the last leg at all. I could have finished two years ago but he put me in such an uncomfortable place, I need to be in my own head space!

@HazelnutCH for me it went very well 🤣. Hope your day goes well
@alehouse enjoy your day
What 2 miles d &d after taking granddaughter to school
Why heavy legs it was enough
Last hard last night really
Last rest 28 12 22

Hi @HazelnutCH it's the LDWA100 this weekend - The Flower of Suffolk.
Three of us (plus 1 supporter!) going down from Club to take part.

Mixed feelings, but mostly excited.

I would be feeling more confident had I actually trained, but such is life.

@Wabo it's a tricky one being tail runner, you have to gauge your audience. Some people love a natter but others really don't! Looks like your chap missed the mark.
