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 liked Torrie HM, but it is one where the route wanders about (the only fixed rule being that it must never, ever cross into Benalmadena).

The first two years I ran it went right up the back of town, through the woods for a bit. The woods! There's something very few tourists see. And only had about 5 km on the front. The third time had a lap of the centre to start and about 7km on the front, but less woods.

I have no fond memories of Luton marathon. It was very wet the year I relayed it though and I think it’s no longer in existence

Got something to say?
