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!

Welcome, Runner's World refugees

Ooh, sounds like it would be helpful if those who knew the RW Forum could maybe post links to our closest equivalents to established RW threads, to help folks find their way round. (I'm assuming they were also counting to a million, right?)

Morning all.

Another RW sub-3/Stevie-G threads refugee.

M47, currently retired from marathons as I try to regain some semblance of fitness and health, but marathons are ultimately my favourite distance so hopefully that's only a temporary state of affairs.

Hi TT, TR, wardi 👋

Just jump in on the sub-3 thread on here I guess? That’s assuming wardi can drag himself away from the ‘joke of the day’ thread!

Got a bit big time and didn't want to mix with us types any more ;-)

But no, think he moved away from wanting to constantly post about running I suppose.

I thought I'd already posted. I actually came over to fetch when fetch left rw. But been on both ever since.
I only posted on the daily training thread on rw nowadays. I will miss that but hopefully they come over here, some already are. Hazelnut, night owl, alehouse, not sure who else.

Odd: Dachs runs for Reading and used to train on the Thames so I'd bump into him from time to time on a Sunday run. I just looked at his po10 profile and it ends abruptly Woodley parkrun Dec 30th 2023 and nothing since in 2024.

Another RW refugee - been there man and boy for 20+ years and see a few familiar names on here.
I guess it was inevitable, most threads dried up - I was only on the daily training posts and an occasional lurker on the sub 3 / 3.15 / 3.30 pages

Ha... circle of life indeed. I remember us Fetchies hanging out on RW because there was no forum here when the site was first opened up. It's how most of the early birds were recruited....

About This Thread

Maintained by fetcheveryone
Runner's World posted an announcement today to tell their users that they are closing their forum on Friday :-O

So... I just wanted to make a little landing pad and decorate it with welcome flags for any new arrivals.
