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!

Well done Big G interesting read. When you incorporate them into events and travels they do bring good memories.

Great T shirt Big_G 😊 you’ve been to my home parkrun, Heslington 😊 I also know someone who did the Chicago marathon and Cornerstone Lakes parkrun so I should think you were both on the same coach 😊

Thanks all.

Idris, yes, I did that one when I was in the city for the marathon one year. Tom Williams and his Dad were there and I believe both did the marathon that year, when his Dad used the time for a qualifier for a different event (Comrades I think).

LindsD, no I haven’t yet made it there. There are a few others on ‘the list’, too :)

Hoping to do Queen’s Glasgow this weekend, frost possible in the forecast though, so I’ll have to be wary of a call off.

Planning to do a Leeds parkrun I haven’t yet done.

Rothwell, cross flatts, Armley, Bramley, Middleton Woods are the possibilities.

Now to look into them properly (and discover one is vertical through extreme mud and I’ll discount that one).
