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!

Firesac we'll have the supporters working on their handover method...there is a trick to handing out stuff to runners on the move and I've mastered it.

Well you'll be wasting your skills on the likes of me. I will most definitely be stopping, in fact, I imagine needing my arse kicked to get moving again :-)

I'll probably be crying by mile 22. No sympathy allowed.

As long as people remember to send their loudest shouty supporters to ensure we keep the correct number of decibels up for the duration of Fetchpoint

I don't understand how it works Max. So you want runners to send their supporteers to Fetchpoint?

It is up to you Wazelle...I shall update articles re: fetchpoint soon.

Some runners send their people up there or the whole day
Some runners have people popping in just in time to see them, then they go
Some runners don't have personal supporters and rely on their Fetch supporters to give it their all

RW also have a similar but less vast cheering squad around 17m at Mudchute.
The yr I did it getting shouts there as well as at Fetchpoint was a real boost.

I was going to say I'm in the later group but not true- Fetchies are my family. ;)
