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!

We did Burlegh Griffin in May, loved seeing the kangaroos! Weather was rather chilly though.

Mudjimba Beach was fun this morning. I love going for a swim after parkrun.

I loved doing Rockingham at the start of the year... but the race brief did warn us to beware of the snakes!

Snakes! You should have gone to Cottesloe down the road-only escaped convicts to worry about.
Mudjimba beach looks nice-but it’s too far away from Noosa by taxi. Will be doing Noosa at the end of December-it’s shady but feels like the jungle. They were very friendly there and gave out ice pops at the end last time I visited.

There was a Carpet Python at my home parkrun, Kelvin Grove, yesterday. Disappointed to have missed it.

I used to do Bibra Lake in WA. Lots of tigers there! Saw a Dugite once.

Did Cottesloe a few times, but never made it to Rocky.

I think I must have done the Albert Park one in Melbourne. Didn't know the name off the top of my head.

Forgot I managed to do Newcastle parkrun - sub 20 there a minute ahead of my boss!

I also did the Lawson one heading into the Blue Mountains. That was probably my favourite but the course was a bit contrived.

Did Gold Coast Main Beach, Albert Pk Melbourne, & Perth WA Uni last summer.

Typically got all the V50 records and then we all now what happened. Waste of money ;)
