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 haven’t done one for a long, long time but I jumped into a Zwift race today, on a Team Time Trial. I found it strangely enjoyable - albeit pretty tough!!

WP - I'm currently rotating 21 pairs of shoes and have another 3 pairs unboxed. So for now there's no room at the inn. 😉

Big G - talking of time trials, as NL is so very flat it would be an ideal location for a MAF test while you're away.

21 pairs of shoes actually in use? Blimey :-O (Not that I'm an angel in that regard, mainly because my shoes never seem to wear out or lose their bounce.)

Possibly Shades. It can be windy though, because it’s so open.

Big G - that's the trouble with flat areas.

Shoes have been selected for tomorrow's run 😅

About This Thread

Maintained by Shades
Back in December 2005 I started a thread on Runner's World offering a marathon training plan on 3 runs a week. I had my own running club at the time (Womens Running Network) and I had successfully trialled the training plan when I took a group of girls to Dublin to run their first marathon.

Over the years the thread has evolved into a chat thread, with a bit of training advice, race reports, for predominantly marathon runners.
