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!

Happy memories in here but also sadness

Sorry to go dark but I have lived through many things while a member of this forum


The image (FFS)

Yes, I see her on FB most of the time. I'm swaddled up in the bright yellow jacket there...I can't help it, I feel the cold terribly! It's hard to believe the little girl is 19 now!

I finally found my oldest photo of Fetchies from GSR 2006. Somehow Gobi missed out on this despite being around.

Dio - I am prepared to bet I was taking it all too seriously and was warming up, I do believe it was my first sub 60 min 10 miles.

Not you, surely? I turned up seconds before the photo was taken and crashed in never having met any Fetchies in real life before. My Fetch top turned up one day too late.

I know, who would have thought that .......

There are a number of pre - event pictures I should be in but I was warming up ....

Maybe if I had realised it was all going to turn to shit I wouldn't have bothered :¬0

You had the glory years and you never gave it anything but your best. I'd say much of it was gold star

There's Craig in the back row... can't remember his Fetch name?
He paced me to my mile PB... you know they say you can't remember pain, well I still remember the pain of that mile ;)

Anyway, he's happily married and they had a son a number of years ago. Craig had long hair for a while too, might still have
