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!

Fingers crossed Sarah.

Hope everyone is doing ok - its Friday!

Felt ok enough to run home last night, and I think the rest had actually done me good as I ran just about the whole of it, rather than run/walking like I have been doing. I love it when you get those good runs - they don't necessarily happen often, but they are worth waiting for.

Emerging after a four day rest

Tup my original streak ended after 10yrs4months back in Oct... since then I have tried to start two.. the first on 24th Dec was going ok till I hit a lurgy mid Jan and the third lasted just over a week and ended after Monday this week

It’s been a week to observe mental behaviour and how stress also impacts me.. other peoples behaviour at work and how I am affected by that

Anyhow.. feeling ok today, tired but ok and off for a hair cut and then a run when I get back

Hope your all
Doing ok x

Rest is good when it’s needed

I’m waiting for Parkrun results while we get ready for an afternoon walk on the Pennine Way

Finished week two of my 200 squat challenge. Tonight’s reps were 22 22 19 19 and 35. In a day or so I need to do a test to exhaustion with a target of 40, which will be fine. It’s amazing how much stronger I feel for doing basically seven sessions of squats in a fortnight

Wow - well done DT!

The state of the weather has stopped me running till today - but am taking the opportunity with this break before the next storm to run home tonight. It may be chilly, but at least I won't be blown away I hope!!

Hope everyone is OK?

I went quiet as I gained the lurgy! So frustrated and have been off work and laid low in a grumpy tired and luckily sleepy few days..

I am thinking of starting Saturday again
Till then rest and sleep
In London tomorrow a full on day, that will be good for steps hopefully

Take care in this crazy windy and very cold snap

Oh no FRU. Doesn't sound good - maybe your body was just telling you you needed a bit of rest?

At the risk of being really annoying and armchair diagnosing, have you tried taking Vi D supplements? I had a spell a couple of years ago where I had what felt like depression, combined with exhaustion, and it turned out I had extremely low vit D levels. Some high strength tablets and a week later, and it was like a light bulb had gone on and I was back in business.

Am so glad the wind has gone away temporarily - I was very bored of it! Managed to run home last night - and will try the same on Friday.

Hope you're feeling a bit better, FRU xx
Good running, Treacle and DT.
I don't know what to do with myself re running. Knees are a bit of a problem but not bad enough to stop me completely. Not sure whether to just keep on with my training prog but knock it down from 3 to 2 runs a week or what. Have lost confidence a bit.
ION, weightloss is going well. 3.5 lbs down this week - 11 lbs in total :)
