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!

Looks like some good winter training going on.

I've been consistently inconsistent over the last few months for various reasons. Still struggling a bit to get to 40mpw which for me would be a cutback week. I really need to get my finger out as I would expect some races to go ahead this year.

I must be late in the day to book accommodation for the lakes on the weekend of the race. There's very little availability left dependent on what your looking for. I'm a diva for a hot tub though ;-)

I haven't got around to booking anything either, had enough trouble trying to find somewhere for the Consiton Lakeland Trails in June.

Think I'll stick to camping, but maybe ought to book a pitch somewhere for a night on either side of the site campsite being open...

Same, here, Rosehip. I'm of the mindset that 2021 is a write off like 2020. :(

STOOSH, the prices of what’s available are probably quite high too.
Instead of a hot tub would a warm
bath and indigestion be a replacement?

Haha Dave, that would be an option !

We've booked for a week just like last year on the basis if the race gets cancelled then at least we have a break away from the house!
In saying that, I'd really like the race to go ahead as with having 2 under 2yrs I can't justify another year of long days away from the family to train.

I've given in and booked a no-prepayment room at the Black Bull for the Sunday Night, I'll camp onsite beforehand - as I won't sleep anyway it doesn't matter where I am. If the weather is nice and I can still move I can find somewhere to camp for a few more days afterward. Figured I might want a proper bed on Sunday night!
