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!

I know that the short course (because I've PB'd since) and baggage issues didn't overly effect me, and I fully accept I am biased, but there are (still) some overly/unnecessarily angry people on Facebook and Twitter.

This guy facebook.com particularly amused me with his demand that "at the very least" the race organisers should be offering free entry and accommodation costs for the next three years to up to 20,000 people! And even then he still wouldn't come back. LOL!

There are some tits around these days.

I shall do it again. I'm local enough to not need the baggage bus and can walk to the start.

Awwww. I like to run around by the cricket ground - and occasionally to Chorlton if there is a chance of cheesecake from Barbakan. :D

"Following feedback from our runners, we have decided to extend the expiry date on the voucher we sent to those of you affected by baggage or course distance. You now have until 31st March 2017, or until the race sells out, whichever is soonest, to redeem this voucher and enter the 2017 ASICS Greater Manchester Marathon for £35."
