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'm happy to help out but I'm a bit confused as to what I'm supposed to be doing.
Can anyone enlighten me please?
And Yay Team 6. 👏😀

From what I can recall of my only experience of Fetchpoint from the supporters side, you watch for runners going past at about 13 miles and scream like a loon if you spot a Fetchie. You then watch for incoming runners approaching Fetchpoint and get ready to hand to them whatever they have asked for (jelly babies, flat cola, sweaty hugs, high 5s etc). These should be in little baggies labelled with the names of the runners.

Sorry guys, I won't be making it due to hip surgery a few days before the event. Am sure you will make more than enough noise without me :-)

Hope you won't be out of action for too long Herman - you can still watch it on TV and scream like crazy every time you see a Fetchie ;-)

Captain S - Becca is quite correct in her description of Fetchpoint activities, I've Fetchpointed a few times, and actually run once - on balance I prefer Fetchpointing, especially as we usually get to eat quite a lot of cayke

I'll try to get there as early as I can in order to put stuff in bags, blow up balloons etc (forgot to mention the balloons - there are usually quite a few) - any other supporters who can get there early will be very welcome, however, as I have a longish journey to get there.

Woo hooo! Just got back from a conference to find my race magazine & number waiting for me. I've filled out the spreadsheet (I don't ask for much, just a cheer will see me with a stupid grin on my face!).
