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!

Really LD ?

Running hard still hurts like hell and to add insult to injury I get to run longer :-)

I'm considerably older than you Gobi so I have the pleasure of being retired. No longer having to get up and go to work is a massive bonus of being old :-)

Yep, quite tough would sum it up! The downhill's fun though! Seem to remember a couple of really muddy sections when I did it, don't know what the weather's like up there atm
