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!

Marigold No-one seemed to want to take the lead so I ended up leading from the start which is a bit of a new thing for me. Was happy to see a chap take on the job from about 1/2 mile in and so just tucked in behind him for the first lap. (Didn't actually know where I was going so it helped!).
Felt the pace dropping close to the end of the first lap so took on the lead again and kept the pace going at around 5:15 miles.
Just as I was getting thoughts in my head around 1/2 way round the second lap that this might be my first ever win,  I heard someone very quickly making up ground behind me. As he came along side I realised it was this chap,

from Poole Runners who was out for a warm-up jog. He proceeded to toy with me for the rest of the race letting me take the lead and then cruising back past when he fancied. I almost managed to surprise him at the end making up a 10m gap when he wasn't expecting it but ended up about an inch behind him both of us around 18:28.
The very pleasant lady who was taking down the offical finish positions actually had to ask us who won!
