Did you wait a few minutes after uploading your run before checking your account? Sometimes there is a queue....

I am learning my 1 mile points now and make sure i pop my garmin over the circle, now. I am not really tactical as such, as I am newish, but I do look at the map and think --- oooo turn there, get a critter, go there, up a road I do not know…

One day there was a cat in the Mercedes HQ carpark - so I trespassed…. ooops… ws fine though - I ran around the car park waved at the security guard and ran back out… some how I think he was used to random runners!!!

I do like this game - it makes you think, it makes you pop places you would not normally go.

My points are rubbish but "I am out there!!"

Thought I'd done really well on my run today, until I noticed JuliaD had picked 21 flowers from me, which might have had something to do with the big jump up the table.

Stellafella if you go to the 'route' tab and then 'your routes' this will list all you routes. Click on the flower by todays route and this will overlay your route on the fetchpoint map and you'll be able to see if you crossed out of the home circle.

A local asked me, as I ran back out do a cul-de-sac, if I had got lost. Decided to smile and wave rather than explain about the bug infestation.

I've lost count of the number of times I've thought better of having a conversation about tracking down Gore-illas :-)

I had to run to the garages behind some council flats today to get one bug :-) Luckily a lot of the cul-de-sacs on the local housing estates have footpaths linking them so I don't always need to double back.

In Caterham (Surrey) there seem to be 2-3 Fetchies, judging from the coins and bugs. Yet there are two flowers in amongst them. I thought flowers could not be planted in anyone's circle.
