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!

PaulaMc - I found this article that states that Mick & Phil were allowed to run the London Marathon in 2008. I can't find Mick or Phil's names in the results but this may be because of the lateness of the decision.

I'm pretty sure I've met Sam t once in real life (running the Notts 20) so with a bit of very mild stalking I know she got round OK with a similar time to me which was close to what she told me she was aiming for.

Thanks swittle. I do recall it being a very last minute thing.

I was supporting by the Cutty Sark and saw M&P go through pretty early. I was surprised firstly because I had thought they weren't allowed to do VLM and secondly because of where they were in the field. Even if they had started bang on 10:10, they were on something like 3 hour pace or not far over. So I presumed they must have joined in somewhere after the start.

Got something to say?
