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 had to decide not to put the route marker down today and hope the first runner was not a visitor and knew the way. Wind was brutal.

Sad story TR - but sounds like a positive and appropriate response

V/rap - glad it went well in Keswick - sorry I couldn't be there

DT - great job, but I have to wonder - what have you been doing up to now? ;)

Eventful morning at Fell Foot today - we had a runner slip, fall and cut his head quite badly (sent to A&E with his wife after he'd been patched up by our team and I'd relieved said wife of her marshaling role) and a report of a back marker throwing an elbow at somebody lapping them in one of the tight spots. Seems that, as RD next week, I have some reminders to issue.

Crosby started 3 yrs ago at 120-130 but since the New Year, over 200 every week. There's nothing quite like coastal weather, as you'll know!

I can report that indeed PK, there were puddles. And then there were PUDDLES. And wind. But Eglinton is a pleasant course with no overtaking which is always a bonus.
