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!

Eddington number - do you know yours?

Is it time barred, or for your entire life?

If it is for an entire running career it seems just to be a measure of longevity?

If you ran 1,000 marathons and no ultras, your number would still be 26

It is based on everything uploaded to fetch

Actually it's miles in a day, rather than on one run.... So you could have a higher number than 26 without having ever run an ultra. Some long double training days would do it.

Got something to say?
