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!

Previews of finish videos are on the marathon-photos site.... if you look at the bit where all your photos are, the preview is right at the bottom (sorry if this has been said already I only had a bit of a chance to flick back and do a quick read through)

Thanks Ndellar

You can't see me elbowing 3 guys out of the way as I tried to power down the finishing straight! But my swishy bastard ponytail gets a starring role!

Sounds good Pat. Mrs K will probably be joining us. May try 5/6m tonight or leave it until the morning and catch up with Marathon Talk pod-casts.

Thanks for the prompt ndellar

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet, but I had a phone call from the organisers this morning saying they have my bag. I'm picking it up on my way home from work. So they're obviously working there way through a list of people they have stuff for.

I got an Email today saying my bag had turned up, although theres not much of value in there. I went out for a 3 mile jog and the legs felt OK, will give 5-6 miles a go tomorrow or Friday.

Bag picked up. Had a good chat with the guy, he was obviously apologetic about the bag situation and reassured me it would be resolved next year. Also, re puddles in Dunham Massey they appeared overnight, by which time it was too late the route without doing a Hull. The reason it doesn't go through central Manchester is because the Council said no to closing the roads as there are already too many events with closed roads.
