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!

Love: mine is Zero

I only play Conquersize, and only really do that when I explore somewhere new. I like one complete rest day a week, plus 1 or 2 non-running days - but when I will cross-train in some way. I used to run 5 times a week, but am tending to think that is too much at the moment and 4 would be better.

I used to play WSW and Fetchpoint but packed them in a year or so ago as they dictated my routes too much, when the fun stops, stop ;-)

I also find it hard not to let WSW take control - this was four weeks of not just streaking but also running twice a day on occasions. But you'll be pleased to know that I did nothing today. At least one day off a week from now on.

The fetch games are great, but are probably best for those who need motivation/novelty/distraction to run (or whatever) or for those who are super competitive but don't scratch that itch via races.

The only game I'm signed up for is Conquercise and that's only because I feel I HAVE to own Dalston. Years ago I 'did' thingython but got obsessed with being near the top - because I could - until I realised my actual, important training was suffering.

I probably need to stop logging most of my walking as training. It's mad, I don't NEED to be on any of the training leagues. I shouldn't need that validation!

I know! :-)
'Oh look how many stairs I've climbed! How many consecutive hours of being active!'
I just don't need it .... but I love stats and it's so easy to get sucked into these things. Well, it is for me, Sharkie Weak Willed Summers.

I need to be top five age group UK 2020 60m sprinter NOT top five Fetch Walking League Dec 2019!

My rest day so far has consisted of researching a new washing machine, hadn’t planned on that! Going to spend time with Fetch friends later for a games evening :-)

About This Thread

Maintained by Sharkie
Welcome to what may be the least watched, least contributed to, thread ...ever.

It's for everyone (well, me) that thinks real Rest Days are vital and a grand thing in themselves. And for everyone (well, me) who feels that one day at a time DONE WELL is always better than half arsed for-evers.

There will be RULES of course (my ball, my game)
