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!

mrs s - it was towards end of May that entries opened this year, I think BAM tend to stick to similar timetable for all their events, so plenty of time to forget how bad the weather was, and only remember the good bits ;-)

Metro_Nome, I managed to run most of the downhill section from Glenogle Head down to the bridge as we came into Killin, and then I was a bit bushed. I didn't think anyone would be overtaking me and I knew I'd just missed the 7 hour marker, so to my shame I took it easy down Main Street, run-walking.

So I was frankly a bit miffed (with myself really) when you came past me like SirMo on the final lap. Well done on that finish :-)

Just seen a video of the start. _Andy was leading the entire field!

Yeah, sorry about that...

I'd just popped into a (no queues whatsoever) portaloo, and when I wandered to the road, found everyone waiting for the start and the countdown was just starting.

Don't worry, I happily jogged along the main strret of Killin, chatting to the people I used to race against. Made sure I'd lost 45 places by the top of that first climb so I could then enjoy the day out.

Good stuff Speedy K5 Gus
My hat's in the ring too. It's GO33 - The Rematch, with Metro_Nome, if she's brave enough... ;-)

Wise call - I mean to stand back and enjoy what you do, and not just enter races 'cos some fat bloke tries to goad you into a rematch. Even though things were nicely poised at one all. It's good that you don't feel the need to prove you're the best despite any provocation.

Chicken ;-)
