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!

Great Barrow Challenge

C'mon Red tomato sign up. If the running goes ok this year I'd maybe like to cycle it next. Easy to say that now:)

Just discovered this and it is very very tempting. Would love to try the 4 runs, it would certainly boost my 100 marathon tally.

Too good to pass up. Is anyone else thinking of the 4 marathons?

Lots of people, especially given the very generous cut off time :-)

Its not such a 'generous' cut off time when you consider the consecequence of running 26+miles for 4 days consecetivly ! also multi terrian takes a lot out of your legs ,its the recovery rate between days, ive seen some damn good people give up .The Medal takes some inner streanghs to get it.Also im 1 trying for the 1st time this year & i want it big time..
