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!

Blister It was very cold, around 2 degrees but at least there was no wind. The ground was fairly soft and had a few boggy bits with only a very small concrete section so I stuck with 12mm spikes. I got there a bit late and because of the cold I left it to the last minute before I got changed, but left it a bit too late as I was still getting changed as the gun went off...ooops! After a quick dash I soon caught the field and quickly made my way up it until I caught Tom and got into a rhythm. After the first small lap I felt strong and went past Tom (I beat him for the first time ever!) and through most of the race I made my way up the field. I seemed to get stronger as the race went on and the mile I did yesterday didn't seem to effect me. The only thing that was effecting me was the cold, even though I was wearing a long sleeve top my arms, hands and face were going numb. I spent most of a lap catching two young(ish) guys and got past them only to find my shoe lace had come undone...doh! So by the time I did it up they had gone past me, however I soon caught them up and managed to catch a few more people before finishing strongly. It was a bit slower than I thought I would run but apparently it was just over 10K. Finished 45th out of 99.
