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!

One of the girls I work with said her son (in his 20s) wanted to get fit, lose some lbs and get into running a bit.
“Will you take him out please”. We went out last week and did a gentle run/jog/walk and he managed fine.
Tonight we did a nice little session involving light jogging, drills and sprints. Only a couple of miles over 40 minutes or so but I get a feeling we may feel it in the morning 😥, meanwhile he went home, grabbed a drink of water and fell asleep within 10 minutes- I feel really awful now I’ve put him through his paces 😏

This was a nice badge to get today! I enjoyed my swim but I'm afraid at 4.7* water temperature I could only manage 200m (4 lengths.) What I cannot get over is that I was the only woman not in skins (both men I saw were in full-length wetsuits.) Most of the others weren't even wearing gloves :-0 How do they do it?

Yeah I lasted 13 mins in 4.9 deg in the lake. My hands were killing me. Nearly everyone else was in skins....
