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 think I'm going to want to be in everyone's grp.
Can I just start at grp1 and hug my way down the whole line?

Yes. That is the best way....assuming you're not running for a time otherwise you'll be there all day

Aaaaaaarrrrggghhhh- that's the dilemma.

S'pose it'll depend how my training goes between now and then.
If it goes well stops will be brief and hugs minimal.
If it goes really badly I'll be running dressed as an injun and hugging everyone.

Run-by hand out slapping the outstretched hands as you run by is good. When you are a runner and you get there, you cant actually see anyone properly.

Max - I think TC was there last year. Sad that he won't be there this year, I think I may need him.

Also having dilemma as to whether I
a) waddle straight past
b) Stop for 1 minute
c) Stop for 10 minutes

I'm going to stop and say hello to you all! Expect me to be accompanied by a bewildered running companion as I emit shrieks and weird nicknames!
