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!

Totally brilliant day, absolutely loved it. Probably my best marathon, felt in control all the way around and had such fun. Thank you to everyone I met :)

Well I'm glad that's over!

Was going well till 13m, felt ok and apart from a bit of butterflies at the start I went ok. Then I really started to feel the heat, it wasnt baking or anything, but I felt hot and showered with water every bottle stop.

Didn't walk until mile 23 when what seemed like the 100th underpass defeated me. Seeing all the cars zooming along whilst the runners had to go up and down the ramps every 100m really hacked me off! (I know, I was a right grumpy guts by that time).

Gun time is 5 hrs, took me 2-3 mins to get to the start line, so my chip time will be 4:57 ish, and I didnt stop my GPS till 5hrs so the download says 5.01, and ive guessed the race time til the results come out.

Saw Minardi and Jackie, and had loads of comments about being a fetchie!!

Thanks for all the support, I owe you all a big beer!

(Ill copy this to the 1st Mara thread so apologies for the dupe)

That man from March
That's shame J*C and Minardi - I blew up at 18 and staggered round from then on feeling dizzy and sick for a finish in 5:08 - NEVER again - Plodding Hippo finished a little behind me. She told me it was her 307th Marathon - Respect. It was my 6th and LAST :)
