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'm in work and nice and quiet on the roads.

Getting back on the sloped drive will be interesting.

Morning, light rain in the Fens has already cleared the roads of snow. Some paths are slippery/slushy but I think all the snow will be gone by tonight.

Morning all!
I too am in work - the hard bit was getting out of my road and the next one - 3 attempts needs on each road... but the M1/M25 was OK... but there is no snow down by Heathrow...
Thank Mrs J for doing the 1500 thread and thank you in advance Doc Moye :)

I have run 5M in the rain & wind which takes me over 1500 miles for the year! - Definitely a PB :) Now every day of running is like a new PB - how good is that?

Well done, Richard-M! Hope your homeward journey goes OK, Toks, after Lanzarote, you'll definitely feel the cold when you get back here.

The snow here in the East Mids is looking quite happy to stay for a while. Probably not going to risk running on it, I can fall over quite easily in the summer, so a face plant on icy snow is more or less a cert.

Chilli for tea as it's chilly.

Very wise JK. We didn't run yesterday for that very same reason.

Office attendance is disappointing.

Sensible JK - same reason we didn’t run yesterday.

Our office is a bit quiet too Wobbler.

Office is also very cold - I have a jumper on over my work top, plus the fleece I keep on the back of my chair, and it’s still baltic.

Drive cleared. A little snow falling and it’s forecast for very cold overnight.

Cleared the pavement and sprinkled grit liberally. I’m sure it will be too icy to run tomorrow. Haven’t run today, partly cos I’ve had a snow clearing workout and partly cos I have charge of someone else’s child ( so they can go to work and earn money while I don’t )

Well done Richard
