That it is here, without Fetch I am sure I would never have stuck with running, the community spirit is amazing and I've made some great friends because of Fetch, so much help and information and super lovely fetchies. Fetchies rock!
30th May 2023
Fetchpoint.
12th May 2023
I like the instant WAVA percentages for each race effort. Especially as a 50+ runner, as that's an area where I can still be competitive. Some nice visual summary pages too.

The beats per minutes efficiency measure which is very insightful for your fitness, and some of the deeper analysis features provided

It was the only thing I used when I started out getting into running. I ditched it for nearly 10 years, life got in the way, and when I came back all my data is still here.. awesome
24th May 2022
All of the useful things everywhere.
20th May 2022
The games and challenges keep you motivated to head out the door even on the cold winter evenings or wet spring days. You can see progression throughout the year and over the past couple of years through the data - I am a data nerd.

There is something for everyone if you look around the site.

The Fetchies. It’s a community of very different people brought together by a common interest which they express in very individual ways. Whatever you are going through there’s support because someone else has been there too
20th Mar 2021
The community feeling, general welcome and camaraderie of the forum threads, the fantastic training log & analysis data and all of the constant updates that Fetch makes
17th Mar 2021
The support of everyone, the games and the stats.

There is such a variety of ways to keep engaged, and responding to the same old running questions is fortunately a a tiny part of the activity.
31st Jan 2021
The recipes.
30th Jan 2021
Unconditional love :)
22nd Jan 2021
The training log and the forum. The forum is a complicated place with a mix of people and sometimes needs very careful navigation. That said, never will you find a place with such a diverse group of people where 99% will try to help you.
20th Jan 2021

I am new to this site but it seems to have strong running community feel
3rd Jan 2021
No real names, no real faces. It's like the internet used to be 20 years ago. No flagshaggers. Also the politics is segregated into it's own thread so it can't contaminate the rest of the bored.
1st Jan 2021
It's so bloody friendly. Testosterone free zone.
12th Dec 2020
The forums for chatting and the training pages where I have 10 years of data telling my life story!

Fetchies. The community that has grown up around this little website is the most supportive, friendly and knowledgeable group of runner/bikers/swimmers/rowers/crossfitters/walkers/everything-elsers that you'll come across this side of cyberspace.
10th Aug 2020
I’m new and looking forward to seeing what it’s all about.
29th Jul 2020
The games, I can do HM training without the games but being injured and allowed to cycle meant I needed a reason to ride. Conquercise, Fetchpoint gives me a focus to get riding. And you can't forget the people, I've learnt so much from them all
3rd Jul 2020
The games and the people, so much knowledge, and so much caring.
16th Jun 2020
Everybody says the community but I mainly lurk...would it be terribly antisocial to say the training log?!

Joint favourites are the games and the people on the forums. It's probably a really good training log too if you are into that sort of thing ;-)
16th Apr 2020
The Fetch family! Such amazing support. Oh and the ability to lose hours oh and check every possible stat!
27th Feb 2020
I have used it for many years on and off and it is friendly. I am not used to friendliness and it makes me happy. Happiness is good right? I just want happiness and people to be happy.
24th Feb 2020
That, mostly, there is support help and acceptance.
6th Feb 2020
All of you! Forum discussions, and the thread of humour that runs through so many of them.

5th Feb 2020
The people who add their experiences of daily runs etc on the various threads.
24th Jan 2020
Its one of the least stressy places on the internet, the slightly more mature membership means less nasty trolling and everyone is genuinely supportive of each other. Admin being a regular user of the website helps too
8th Jan 2020

27th Dec 2019
The people I’ve met along the way. The fact that I can race just about anywhere in the uK and the chances are ill meet another fetchie Especially if I wear my fetch vest
20th Dec 2019
Sense of camaraderie, the forums, and the blogs. Always a good chance to re-motivate myself :-)

8th Aug 2019
The training log is very good and easy to navigate.
4th Jul 2019
It’s complete lack of pretension. It does everything I want a running site to, without any of the things that clutter up more commercial sites
6th May 2019
The forums (forae), from where there is a lot of learning, shared goals and humour in a supportive environment
1st May 2019
Great community but its all the stats I can geek out on.
2nd Apr 2019
It's a friendly group of people and the critical mass of experienced marathoners isn't available locally.

It's a place for everyone, whether they want to geek out on running stats, talk about running or chat about whatever else is happening in their lives.
10th Jan 2019
It’s a very inclusive community that accepts everyone regardless.
1st Jan 2019
The training log and analysis. I'm such a geek!
10th Dec 2018
Consistently lovely. Leave it for a while and it still bumbles on, meeting random strangers and being cheered on. Buying random kit and feeling part of something from afar.
6th Dec 2018
It is such a supportive community. There is always someone to congratulate you when you achieve, commiserate with you if things are not going well and laugh with you when you have experienced the funny side of life

Just one thing? :-o Oh alright - Fetchies. They are just awesome in so many ways.
16th Jul 2018
The community and the training stats pretty awesome.
6th Jul 2018
The forums, being able to chat to like minded people, or dip into the sub 2:45 marathon forum for inspiration, or the ultra forums to talk to like minded dafties. I love the stats, they dont lie, so many many stats, I love them.
4th Jul 2018
The forums for definite. I love the fact that the different threads have different cultures, and I get different things from each one.
27th Jun 2018
The support of friends who have advised me and supported me to run faster, further and for longer than I could have ever imagined, particularly since 2003 when I had my hip resurfacing operation.
18th Jun 2018
The support of people that I have mostly never met is astonishing. This is a real community :).
17th Jun 2018
You lot. All of you. But especially YOU... ~ points at you ~
16th Jun 2018
The whole deal - the people, the training log, the stats, the fun, the help, the kindness to strangers off the internet, the Fetch Mile. What have I missed?
15th Jun 2018
The lovely, lunatic people
15th Jun 2018
It’s a community dedicated to the mutual good. And great to have at your back when the octopuses come at you.

All of it ...Fetch is a giant rainbow of bright happy colours and a very large family.

The banter in certain forums. We all know which ones ;-)
15th Jun 2018
The people who write blogs, give advice, keep me amused and improve my mental health. The sheer variety of the forum, from serious running to utter trivia, logging on is always a gateway to pleasure.
14th Jun 2018
I was looking for a place to log my runs and analyse the info. Fetch offered all that and more. The forum on RW was becoming a bit 'blagh'; Fetch was fresh and friendly..!
14th Jun 2018
It is so friendly and supportive and I learn new things so often in the forums

14th Jun 2018
Lovely people
14th Jun 2018
The community, friendliness and generally positive vibe
14th Jun 2018
Where to start! Probably the freedom to follow my gut, and to be happy in work; but also the flexibility to have more time with my lovely wife and my boy than I would otherwise have had. Ditto for the chance to run in daylight!
14th Jun 2018
Oh, where to start? Great community of inspiring people. Possibly one of the most consistently helpful and supportive groups ever. Irreverent but often smart and knowledgeable too. The tools, stats, race directory etc. are pretty brilliant too. :-)
