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!

Photies? Here is a bit of the WHW/ Highland Fling. (Me, I was only out for a walk. Definitely not a race.)

Ultra training can bring tears to my eyes too - Only it's the feckin' branches from trees that smack in my face when i'm not expecting it. :(

Ahh, Conic Hill Dvorak. Still provokes a shudder 28 years after I last did the WHW as a youngster with far too heavy a rucksac.

Funny you should say that Mr Pain, on my way up that day I passed a couple of young guys in just that situation, slumped on a banking. At least I was able to tell them it was only another twenty minutes down to Balmaha.

And another five days till the end :-O

It's good to hear the youth of today are no fitter or better prepared ;-).
