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!

Notes & Comments

Cardiff Half Marathon 2012, new course and even larger field than last year. Bit chaotic in the first mile as everyone jostled for space, which soon sorted itself out. Started in the sub 1.45 pen but quickly progressed and latched onto sub 1.30 club colleagues, Mystery Pete and Glyn. The three of us then had an epic battle almost until the finish, swapping places here and there - for the spectators it must have rekindled memories of Coe, Ovett and Cram together in the 80’s....only in slow motion! Maintained steady pace throughout, though lost a little on the ‘massive hill’ up the east side of the Lake, where my rivals finally pushed on ahead. Still, finished 1 second under 1.26, so happy with that. Brilliant spectacle seeing the roads full of runners. Great organisation, super weather and best of all, of course, fantastic support. Cardiff finally did itself proud today. Cheers everyone.
6.36, 6.20, 6.20, 6.23, 6.22, 6.30, 6.28, 6.33, 6.30, 6.38, 6.49, 6.44, 6.43, 6.14
Please wait... saving your change.
