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 was completely shocked by it! Thought I was plodding slowly compared to my normal but obviously not :)

Yay! Well done M4P! I just ran my usual five mile route a bit faster than usual, we must be doing something right! :-)

Well done m4p :)

Stewie you might want to look at the race profile for Loch Ness. There are a few hills - both down and up! ;)

Mr Lemon did Loch Ness twice without me, and said there was only one hill (Dores) but said it was otherwise flat. When we did it together twice at my pace he realised there are a few little ups and downs along the way. Must be more noticeable at a snails pace! It is a fab race, hence why every year I bang on about wanting to go back!

Just spent a couple of hours in the garden, looks a bit tidier now and Mr L sawed a load of logs. I love being outdoors, especially as it's so mild out there.

Been checking Easyjet very day and now the flights are up (for Inverness) so we are now looking at hotels, any recommendations? We've stayed at a B&B near the foot bridge in the past, very handy to stagger back to, just wondered if anyone had any tips...

Was it AR and TBC! Thames Bridge Challenge, a few fetchies usually get together every so often and run the bridges then have lunch in a nearby pub. I can't remember if its on the mundane thread or the 700 thread I see them talking about but it may well have its own thread

We are in a different Premier Inn next year LG. The River Ness one have hiked their rates too much for this mean Aberdonian! We are in the PI near Raigmoir.
