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!

Crash Hamster Well Launceston is hilly (my Polar clocked 1160 ft of ascent) it was hot (89F) and I had a stinking cold. I enjoyed it, but I was rubbish...

Iron Squishy Absolutely scorching!!! 1160 ft of ascent, very long slow hills, killing in the heat! Still having trouble with plantar fasciitis, but wasn't going to miss our 'honeymoon' race!! The sponge at mile 9 probably saved my life!! My worst half marathon time ever! Very glad to finish. Couldn't walk for 2 days afterwards (due to the race - NOT honeymoon!!!!)

paskha 39th Half ... Update - Race started 10:30am .... HOW HOT / HUMID was that??? WOW - my PW Half-M time EVER - I didn't really enjoy it - and I was so looking forward to it. But as always, meeting people when you're struggling always makes it worthwhile!! It was rediculous. First 3 miles went more or less to plan, 29 mins, then next 4 miles (the hard grind) were 6 mins adrift, the next 4 miles (fast miles!) were 10 mins out PLUS a 4 min stop (bum cramp!!) I had to walk the last 2.1 as my HR was 170 WALKING and I was quite worried ..... another 13 mins out!! but hey, I survived, but only just .... most other runners times were MUCH MUCH slower too .... Official time as above (they got me & Ann Foster the wrong way round) /// pre-race info .... Cornish GP race No.7 - Don't know if I'll be fit enough for the prediction - I've done this every year since 2001, and it's a toughie! I astounded myself by going sub-2:10 in 2004 (2:06:55 I think) but I am fitter this year, so here's hoping.
