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!

Great idea with the "I'm Ready" checkbox, as my mobile provider is patchy at best, so when I'm not on WiFi my runs take ages to load.

Perhaps a countdown to the next hour? So runners know how long they have to complete the distance & click for the next.
Flashing red screen in the last minute and klaxon?

Like the bit at the top that says "Countdown"? :-)

57.5 Degrees of Pain
What start time are you thinking? It might be fun to try and incorporate a parkrun into one lap, though in Scotland we'd need a mile warmup and only get 30 mins for the final 5k.

I think The Man-Boy's exams run into early July.


I actually can't see one on the AQA list after June 7th, but that's no guarantee.

57.5 Degrees of Pain the reason that makes me a little bit nervous is that there's normally quite a big import queue on Saturday mornings. I do get around that by prioritising the people who have recently logged in - but I'd hate for the event to be derailed by technology fails.

Apologies.
I saw the hh:mm:ss and didn't click that it resets to mm:ss for the next start

Nah, you’re right, it shows the time - but I can make it go bright red in the last minute or something.

About This Thread

Maintained by fetcheveryone
I thought it'd be good to have a thread for discussing F'Laps 2024 (Date 6th July 2024). Follow this thread if interested.

The Rules
1) You must run or walk your chosen distance (a choice of 4.167 miles, 5k, 2 miles or 1 mile) within each hour e.g. 9-9.59am, 10-10.59am, 11-11.59am.
2) Each participant must visit Fetch and hit the "Completed it mate!" link before the hour ends: fetcheveryone.com/flaps-checkin.php
3) If you're finding it too much, you can drop down to a shorter distance, or tap out.
4) The winner is the last person standing in each distance category.
5) You can participate on your own, or get together with other Fetchies.
