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!

Here is my latest one, just published today, a 5.3 mile run around Cheddar Reservoir as the sun is setting:

I'm just rendering (11 hours in!) a virtual interval session, which I plan to publish this week. It's 10 x 1 minute hard with 1 minute easy between. I've not added any music to this one, so it's just the sounds of nature and me talking.

I'm thinking of creating an alternative version with music, what do you all think?

The huffing and puffing might be offputting when you're running hard, so maybe try some music?

I try to run as 'quietly' as I can! I've often thought about creating two versions of each run, with and without music, but that would be a lot of work and from previous posts in this thread, it seems like most people prefer no music.

I recently published a new type of virtual run, a virtual interval session (10 x 1 minute on/off along the cycle track). I've created two versions of this one, with and without music.

With music:

It's nice with the two options actually. Music choice is such an individual thing. I've previosly commented about thinking 'no music' is best, but for a session I need anything to take my mind off the pain!

That's what I was thinking with the virtual session, it's more 'aggressive so you need to be a bit more pumped up.

With a steady, people might just want a gentle stroll in the countryside, so fast-paced music might be annoying.

Here is my latest run video, through the bluebells:

I also recorded a walking version (slightly different route) a week earlier - luckily both on sunny days.

I published a new run a few days ago, I had planned to run longer but my calf injury made me cut it short. I ended up limping the last part of the run!
