Hanneke Feb 2024 11:51am, 28 Feb 2024 120,772 posts	Quote Pin Hanneke I too love HBs idea. It is much more feasible and all inclusive than a real run... And thank you Fetch, for the update. I am glad he was in bed. Chances are he died peacefully in his sleep.
Alice the Camel Feb 2024 12:02pm, 28 Feb 2024 16,381 posts	Quote Pin Alice the Camel Definitely some relief and comfort in knowing that Steve died in bed, thanks for passing that on. I’m sure I’m not the only one who was imagining all sorts of scenarios.
GimmeMedals Feb 2024 12:02pm, 28 Feb 2024 26,680 posts	Quote Pin GimmeMedals Thanks for the update, Fetch. The virtual challenge could be based around sculptures of Britain, ending at Crosby beach.
EvilPixie Feb 2024 12:03pm, 28 Feb 2024 52,113 posts	Quote Pin EvilPixie Thanks for the update fetch Love the idea of a virtual run but also could we do something like the Dr K cup?
Jaks Feb 2024 12:06pm, 28 Feb 2024 6,707 posts	Quote Pin Jaks Thank you for the update Fetch. Hope someone can create a new route for this year.

I think the Dr K cup has been used to remember all Fetchies who we have lost EP - it just bears the name of DrK - maybe a name change to the event to be more 'inclusive' of all we wish to remember ?

About This Thread

Maintained by LipGloss

Never met him in person but always came across as a lovely man.

If you read about his nightly beach runs you could almost have been running along beside him.

He always encouraged others especially on the How was your run thread.

Hope all your beach run are still as perfect as they were while you were here xx

Funeral 5th April 1.30pm at the Thornton Garden of Rest, Lydiate Ln, Thornton, Liverpool L23 1TP
