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!

WACA Bit of a disaster for me really. With the words 'well marked course' ringing in my ears I was off and doing well, unfortunately where I should have turned left off the road at about 4 miles there was no obvious tape and I turned right where there was some, followed sadly by some poor other souls. Imagine my angst when about 30 mins later I arrived back at the start..... Failed, D'oh. Had a cuppa and then started out on the half marathon instead, lovely sunshine by this time instead of the mist that hadn't helped an hour earlier. Enjoyed the half as well and finally finished, again, after doing about 21 miles. Some of the others who had mistakenly followed me semed to get a lift back into the race which was good of the organiser. Someone told me that some marines on the 40 miler had similar troubles, some of them had the sense to give up and enjoy a fryup instead:-) Don't know what to make of the organisation really, 'Race Adventure', definately well intentioned, and there's no doubt should have looked at my map, but excited when was leading and clearly following just markers was a bad idea on my part, that's a lesson for me. As I say, don't think can criticise Race Adventure for it and I still enjoyed my day. Feel sorry for those who followed me, it must have been hard to get back into the race for them, but then hopefully they got a lift and got back in. Other people from my club really enjoyed it and were buzzing. Soup was good at the end, shame about the burnt rice pudding;-) No goodie bag was a bit sad for some finishers, e.g., my wife who did bril finishing the half, she was bit surprised to see me bound up at mile 12 to join her:-) Was back home for 13.00 too so excellent timewise. £20 value? Probably. I do hope they do it again, I'd like to try once moor;-) I might know where I'm going next time.
