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!

I'm running the course on Saturday when snow is expected. Good luck to all those racing. I'll be on baggage on the day.

Spring....tsk.

If at some point in the next few months the temp soars to about 5 deg C and the sun pops out for the odd minute, they'll be carnage on race day with heat exhaustion!

Lol @ Flanker, I have hidden depths you know! Hope the leg test goes OK and you're able to run.

Well good luck everyone, I shall be sporting my club vest, but I'll have a fetch buff on and some thermal attire (again. *sigh*) :)

pulled out of Hardmoors 55 on Saturday, still hoping (probably unrealistically) to be able to do Oakley.

Race cancelled according to Harriers facebook page :(

What a shame - but only fair to decide promptly and keep everyone safe.

Still need to do my planned 20 miler though

OAKLEY 20 - CANCELLED

Bedford Harriers regrets to advise that the Oakley 20 & 3K Fun Run are cancelled.

Prevailing weather conditions have made the run route and it's environs unacceptably perilous and expected sub-zero temperatures overnight will exacerbate the hazards.

Provision to mail the race mementoes is being made.

Please return to this website later today for further information on how to order yours.

It is anticipated that mailings will begin week commencing 8th April 2013

As many entrants will be aware the race expenses are considerable and are all still payable regardless of whether the race proceeds. In consequence we are unable to offer refunds or transfers
