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!

Afternoon all, a windy 10k to open this year's account.

Glad to see some making good progress and wishing those all those still unable to run a speedy recovery.

I don't know if playing on a zip line in a foot of snow counts as 'taking it easy'.

It was until your bum scrapes the top icy layer of snow :)

Had hoped to do parkrun but at 8:30 this morning the rain was coming down like a waterfall, and running down the road like a river, so I didn't. By 9 o'clock it had not only stopped raining, the sun was shining. But too late to get there. Went for a short run this afternoon instead.

Nothing from me today as the rain didn't seem to stop for long enough to go out for a walk. I've been busy packing and tidying up anyway as I'm off to the white stuff tomorrow. Not sure I'll be skiing too much the first week as snow is desperately needed and it's forecast to come next week. :)

Just a walk and a weights session for me today. I really must get back to parkrun when my foot’s better. I wish there was a closer one.

ar - much the same as you. Weather, not to the slopes.
The weather forecast predicted a pretty dire morning, but clear skies with 'occasional showers' for the afternoon.
It was right for the morning, but the afternoon was more 'rain, with occasional blue skies, not lasting longer than 5 mis and always qith the next rain coud in sight'.

So no miles for me today.
