that could be her, I've had a look through the listed Fetchies and I'm none the wiser!

Who were the male and female fetchies running together? Plus several lone males with Fetch tops. Apart from Grid (who spotted me first!) don't know the others.

Come on, own up ;)

thanks for the cheering Meglet and all. Yes me and Minnie went round together, she has her name on her shirt I was in the black/yellow fetchy top with no name on yet. Lady with blond hair may have been Mcmouse whi we had a chat to. Good fun today, neither of us 100% so wern't worried about the time to much managed 2:02 and change.

Pub after was great nice to meet so many even if I am really crap at names!

my hands are still in agony after all the clapping .... or was it all those pints I held in the pub afterwards lol

it was good to be able to cheer on so many fetchies and other runners I know ... the only one I didn't get a chance to cheer on was Gemma from Kirkstall Harriers who had already passed when I arrived and went on to to be first lady by a hell of a margin

great to meet fetchies old and new in the pub afterwards and we now have a geat idea being formed for a training run off road in Holmfirth followed by a look around a brewpub and sampling of it's wares :-)

I saw her LA, she was leading by quite a margin by 7 miles.

But then the male leader was also way ahead at that point, the first 4 athletes were very strung out, must be lonely being fast ;)

what was the winning time?

it was also good to see lots of local club vests. In fact the marshall near me (from Aire Valley Pacers) was saying they couldn't give too many marshalls as so many were running. he also said they have three times more lady than men in their club, seems like a good stat to attract people of both gender!!
