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!

Tentative turning 10k to gold.
Just depends on finding the time for the solo run.
Normally run with friends much slower than I can do.
Always bet responsibly

Sigh wrote:I'm now doing a parkrun this Saturday - my first of the year - at Tamworth, on well rested legs. So, I've set myself the challenge of running it in 29:49, which I should be capable of, with the caveat that I've never done Tamworth before so the course is unfamiliar to me.


Word of warning @Sigh , when I did Tamworth my Garmin measured it as 2.94 mi (4.7 km).

I've got no qualifying distances either but will start working on that later this afternoon. Then at some point i'll maybe be worth betting on.

Similar @kstuart I'm lacking on 5mile/10km runs I'm working on that may take a few months

Pleased with my fast 10k this afternoon.
Well done to those punters willing to take a risk.

The “Who’s racing” page has been revamped fetcheveryone.com/whosracing.php I wonder if it’s technically possible for the people there to have a horse icon, or something, if they are a registered horse and the viewer is a registered punter.
