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’d love to be able to sleep later than 5am! Especially now it’s getting dark again, which slows me down a bit! Still I do love having the world all to myself! Not many people around when I run! It just feels like we haven’t had much of a summer this year!

I did Thunder Run as part of a team for 5 years and running in the middle of the night is a fun experience - especially there!

There are times where if I am still up at 11pm I'll stay up for an extra 90 mins or so to get my run in early doors as soon as midnight kicks in and then go to bed, and I can get up and know my streak is done for that day :)

How did it feel Bowman? Well what usually happens is that 12 or so hours later I’ve almost forgotten being out there. However going off past experience I am usually slower paced ( and that’s ok) for my natural easy pace . The following hours after I feel quite aware and awake . Currently straight after the run I have a protein shake and porridge, so what I’m also doing is running fasted not faster 😀

Ok UD,

Well afterwards it feel uplifted and "fresh" as well. That's why i really want to be able to run around 5 ish in the morning. But i really don't see it happen any time soon.
And now its dark as well and i live in hilly woods, not an easy flat run. :)
I pretty much always run fasted, most days around over 20h since last meal, i like that.

I have a awesome one :) Use it all the time during winter evenings in the woods.

The thing i meant, was that its no "walk in the park"
Darkness, hilly terrain and so on 5 in the morning.
Compared to a light jog in the flat neighbourhood street lights around 7 ish.

Not saying that is your case, just that there are differences.

There's different degrees in hell, if that translates from my language to yours :)

You only need to run on the days you eat!
However if you are fasting for any reason you still need to run!
