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!

Afternoon all! I can't report much running, we got hit with deep snow so have had snow days off work and spent time hunkering down waiting for it to pass and watching tv. Prior to this I was getting very tired all the time and didn't have energy to run in the week, so the time off work with the snow has been very good timing. It's all now melting away and I am looking forward to running a bit more often now and logging some times for the SAP races. Nothing like the arrival of Spring to get you itching for a run :-).

Hi gang! :)

I've been a bit scuppered on the running front so far this year - lurgies, skiing and last week's weather meant I only ran 5 times in Jan and 6 times in Feb. As it's all gone again now I got out for a lovely sunny 4 miles this morning to open my March account but I'm off skiing again tomorrow so won't achieve many miles in March either. :)

I hope you all manage to start getting out more now it looks like the spring may be coming along soon and hope all the lurgies bugger off and stay away now. :)

Been out for a slow plod, and boy was it slow!! But jogged for 2 miles and then walked another mile so quite pleased I managed that - not worried about speed right now, just trying to get some level of fitness back.

I can confirm the puppy is gorgeous.
Been out for training runs in the wind, snow and whatever else has been thrown at us. 14 today sadly was 11 as the legs just couldn't take the snow anymore... well I probably could have as one of the three of us did but the other was totally scunnered and so I went back with her. I had done 4 on Friday night and parkrun yesterday so the legs were more than tested.

Oh dear, we aren’t doing too well are we?

Can everyone keep an eye out for my mojo and let me know if they spot it? I’ve checked the shed and down the side of the sofa.

Fragile am sure it was last seen heading off into the sunset towards warmer climates hand in hand with my mojo
