Join Fetch Everyone Running Club
Affiliated to England Athletics (Club ID 2662424)
What do I get as a member?
As a member of FERC, you get cheaper race entries (typically £2 cheaper than the price charged to unaffiliated runners), and the chance to win one of our London Marathon club places. We also hold a virtual club night every Tuesday evening around 8pm - a good place for advice and support to reach your goals - or just to talk about cake. And as approximately £10 of the money you pay goes to support the Fetcheveryone website, you'll also get a nice warm feeling inside. Thank you!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I join half way through the year?
Yes. Our club year runs from April 1st 2024 to March 31st 2025. If you're a new athlete (i.e. not previously a member of another club), you can sign up any time from January 1st 2024, and your payment will cover you until March 31st 2025. However, if you're transferring in from another club, it's best to wait until the new club year, or you'll have to pay again when we reach April 1st.
I'm joining from another club. Is there anything I need to do?
Even if your membership with your previous club has long-since expired, EA will still have a record of your connection. To transfer from your old club, you need to put in a 'transfer request', which sounds exciting, but isn't. You can do this by going to your EA profile page and looking for the transfer link. This generates an email to your old club asking them to release you, and when they do so, you'll get a confirmation, at which point you can apply to FERC.
When do you pick the winners of the London Marathon ballot places?
In normal times, this happens in December. Since the pandemic, and the rescheduling of events etc, the timetable set by London Marathon has been a bit more *flexible*!
What's our club kit?
We're completely happy for you to wear any Fetch kit when representing your club. Or a mankini.
Can I add FERC to my FE profile?

I have a question that's not listed here. What do I do?
