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!

Well I've had a long break away from here. Have I missed anything? Apart from several thousand posts...

But people still go to Facebook to ask basic questions about events which are on the race website so not all has changed…

Maybe there's a market for the £10k 10k?

Actually we do offer that at Beeston, just mail the money (cash only) and I'll let you know the arrangements. For an extra £1,000 we can carry you round by sedan chair.

For those that enjoy dot watching over a few days, then lots to look at currently. Copied from the Open Tracking FB page ( the Paul Giblin one looks especially bonkers - LEJOG by off-road trail !! ) :-

We have a few interesting solo challenges out this weekend.
Kristian Dela Cour is running the NC500! we have tracked the record on a bike but not many run it.. 100k in the first 12hrs live.opentracking.co.uk

Setting off at lunchtime today we have Anna Troup out on the Pennine Way live.opentracking.co.uk
Our trophy icon will be out on this one - Sabrina Verjee has the current record but from North to South, whereas Anna is going from South to North (as with many records the direction doesn't matter). So here we had to create a simulated time stamped file based on the total time.. so the trophy icon won't stop for a sleep.

James Forrest is out on a solo unsupported record attempt on the national 3 peaks which includes walking between them as well.

Paul Giblin is off on quite some journey live.opentracking.co.uk

And Stuart Obree is out on the Cambrian Way. live.opentracking.co.uk
