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 really glad to see it returning to the park, even if I probably never will. We all called it by the park name not the city name in the old days anyway 😀
Yes, that's my exact position too. But if I was one of those people doing Pirates challenges and the like, I might be upset 😀

Can someone please tell me what's changed? I can't imagine it's a secret.

Cambridge has been retrospectively renamed to Milton Country.

Checked my Running Challenges and Pirates now needs another C :( Fortunately Cranleigh is on my to do list once it eventually restarts!

So...will tomorrow be an inaugural, event #517, or both?

From the webpage it will be 517, continuing from where it left off, just with a new name.

16/3/2008 and it was three miles in 33 mins but I had no garmin trace. IanS appeared to also do that race I had run 1:29 in the morning and I recall it being 1.5 miles with wind advantage to cramond and then 11+ miles of hell into a wind to Musselburgh.


didn't some of the McColgan's do it too :-)

Does that mean it’s restarting then? Cambridge didn’t return after the COVID pause.
