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!

What a fabulous event! rjb and I really enjoyed ourselves today, it was great and a little bit awe-inspiring to meet so many lovely Fetchpersons.

rjb ran a bit faster than he expected and came within a whisker of dodging under 6 mins, and I was delighted with my fraction-over-8mins - huge thank you to my lovely pacer Rich!

Cakeage was magnificent, and I hope we can do this again very soon!

What an awesome day. I am sitting in the chip shop waiting for our fish and chips, with sunburnt shoulders and a couple of pints inside me - and grinning gently :-) Again, again :-) Thank you all so much for being so awesome :-)

Thanks, Helegant! I see the 400m race now. If everyone who has put their 400m time in the 0.4km race listing I created takes it off and puts it in the Bedfordshire Clangtastic 400m, it can be deleted from the listings.

I apologise for being impulsive and a bit dim muppet

On the way home after a lovely Fetch-filled afternoon. So good to see people again and to meet lots of new Fetchies. Am going to update my sticker book on the journey home :-)

Thank you Fetch and Katie for organising everything. Thanks also to everyone who brought food. Lovely as it was I do not recommend a cream tea immediately. Wrote a 400m race.

Thank you everyone, especially Fetch, for a great day.

I've added two new Wetherspoons to my 'spoons log; I've added a 13th parkrun to my growing collection; I've cut over a minute off my 1 mile PB; and I've set for the first time a 400m time.

But more than that I've met some great people, and look forward to meeting again at some point.

Nice to meet you №83912 and have a chat. Hope you enjoy your forthcoming marathon.

Nice to meet everyone else as well, including those non-local Fetchies who travelled long distances to get there today. Wonderful enjoyable event with great people.

Hope .B isn't too drunk on lime and soda to get home ;-).
