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!

Great to see your training is still going wellsparklecloud That will be a huge pb !!
I wouldn't think about the weather. It is an uncontrollable and decisions can only be made on the day if it turns out to be a warm one!
Have you done an ultra before? That is a long way followed by a 22 the next week !

Thanks Solo. No, it's my first ultra! Just going to take it as slow and easy as possible.

Sad to see mine arrived. I decided to drop out just a few days after the deadline for deferral. Mind you I hadn't booked an airbnb so maybe my subconscious had been telling me something a while earlier.

Are we allowed to start obsessing about the weather yet? Current forecast - light rain shower and a gentle breeze. As long as it's on the gentle side of gentle, it could be a lot worse!

Supposed to be cool and a flat calm. Maybe they heard I wasn’t coming. I’ve have a word with the pixies.

Cool and calm for me, all day long. Gentle tailwind down the 4 mile stretch of Manchester Road, that miraculously becomes a gentle tailwind when running in the opposite direction from about 17 miles onward 🤣
