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!

Interesting Snail, good analysis! Sorry you haven’t found a home but then as a snail I guess you carry it on your back 😂 ever thought of starting a new one?

I still have all the kit in my garage (although I guess some will be out of date now) but we haven't ever managed to find somewhere with the combination of space to run and parking

I moved house in Feb 2021, my first run post-Covid was the Broadwater inaugural coincidentally on my exact 11th anniversary of my first Parkrun. It was a real mix of emotions to be somewhere new, an inaugural, my emergence from shielding, and an anniversary all at once. I was horribly out of shape, and Jeremy Hunt turned up glad handing and taking pics so I ended up on his Instagram!

So my 100th volunteer will have to wait. Heavy rain in Brisbane has led to flooding on the course and we have had to cancel the event.
