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!

PB attempt went south in the very warm conditions today. Still it was nice to have a social run with friends.

42:42 for me at Langport today. Have been injured and a bit knackered of late, so that's probably my lot for this year. Almost 90 secs off last year's best, so mustn't grumble :-) How's it going for everyone else.

Haven't done a 10k or 5k this year and DNF'd my marathon. The only race I have completed is the very short but brutal Steel Fell. And that nearly completed me, Suffolk doesn't prepare you for hills like that.

I have a half and maybe a marathon coming up!

You'd be fine in Cambs, Mr D. We go to Suffolk for our hill training.

Hello. Resurrecting this old one!!

This is my aim for 2016. My PB is 42.49, it's 3 years old nearly. I've run a 42.50 this year and loads of early 43s. I have only run a handful this year and planning on running lots more next year. Anyone else or am I on my own?

My first is on 10 Jan but it's definitely NOT a PB course (Woodcote), they pride it on being hard, the 2nd half is all massively uphill. I'm doing a flat fast one in Jan at the end of the month.

I need to get better at 5k, I'm rubbish and can pretty much only just do 42 min pace so have some work to do there as well!!

In a slightly tricky position that I can run only 3-4 X a week and not do speed work due to pretty big ongoing injury I need to manage. I do speed work type stuff on the bike plus a hell of a lot of cycling though which I hope will get me where I need to be
