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!

lol at the cheese grater.

How exciting GM you will do it, I’ve done the lapped events before and having the chance to stop and refuel regularly is so good. Which one are you doing?

Thanks @Rosehip ! First race with a drop bag. Oh. My. God. The pleasure of fresh socks and shirt at 42 km 😀

How was it? I had considered it briefly for 60@60 and then go so far behind mileage I didn't enter

Definitely recommended! Lovely route, challenging but not outrageous, really well supported, great markings, checkpoints very good and no shortage of supplies.
