I'm with local parkrunners - the ED and another RD of our parkrun, plus a couple of their friends. I won't be in a Fetch vest but will be in a Fetch cap (black and / or red). Our team's called Tri Harder. Heading down on the train to Midgham and meeting them in the pub for dinner this evening.

I got my fetch anniversary vest for one of my laps, other than that I'll be in Finch Coasters canary yellow.

Been over this morning to set up. Ground conditions good. Sunshine and clouds. Warm in the sun. CW - not sure as I'll be changing tops each lap but you sort of know what I look like anyway
Tent all set up right on the course on by the tarmac strip after the first corner. Will give me some company when FM is out trotting round

I agree, first laps at midday was brutally warm and even overnight I was in a vest. I managed 8 laps which is my most ever, so chuffed! I know CStar and FM did 12 laps each which is epic!

My feet are broken! I never get blisters, but today I have blisters all over my feet and between my toes. 70 miles again this year.

Five laps here, 30 total in our team. Really pleased as I only agreed to do it about two weeks ago and was definitely not trained for it! Saw CStar on his sixth lap.
Lovely atmosphere and brilliant way to challenge ourselves to go a bit further than we usually would.

7 laps, 15 minutes sleep, a few beers, chatting with friends old and new. Loved it!
