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'm thinking of doing this marathon and wondered if anyone had done it before. Have done marathons but so far they've all been road marathons. Is it worth it? What's the terrain like? By the way it's on September 8th and there's also a relay and a half marathon for anyone who's interested.

Thanks PH. Need to ponder on this one as I'm hoping to train for a 33 Ultra in November, so this will be part of the training plan. Got Loch Ness on the 29th September so if I do decide to do this, I'll be taking it very easy and it will be a run/walk situation with the only aim to finish in one piece. Hmmmmmm decisions, decisions.
