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!

No running for me today, just opening hundreds of bottles of water and handing them to the BMF half and full marathon runners.

Afternoon All! Ta for the good anniversary wishes, and well done weekend runners! Hope Funky behaves in wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen.

Back home from Yorkshire where I didn't run the marathon, but was a brave little soldier and didn't howl and sob pathetically. However, did offer wifely support OH doing the 10 miler - he did splendidly, just over 71mins, a PB and another county gold standard time.

Chicken and ham pie for tea, cooked for us by DD2, who is an excellent cook, so looking forward to that.

Ta, Doc! And a quick correction, OH's time was in fact 70:49 so actually just under 71 mins, and he came 165th out of 3,177 and first in his age cat. Woohoo, go rjb, go!

Bournemouth Marathon completed today in a hot and stupidly sunny day in October!

With little preparation or regular running a time of 5:00:30 is something i’ll take with both hands the only thing I would moan at myself able it is that there was far too much walking but what’s done is done!

Pleased you are happy RA. It has been a warm weekend. Yes, not enough training so walking to be expected.

In other news could I blag this job?

Well done Richard (and Funky) on the 10K PB! :-) Good volunteering westmoors, and JK, well done for supporting and not-sulking (which is probably what I would have done). Great running by your OH too!

Well done Alex, hope you're feeling okay after the marathon and that your foot is okay after the PF issues you've had.

Go for it Wobbler! :-)

I also say yes, go for it, WW - all you'll need is a hairbrush, a good pair of scissors and some facepaints.

I've been in a 10 mile race with rjb. He's a fast. I saw him go off at the start and never saw him again.
