I wonder if someone is going around glueing coins to the pavements

I just got about 20,000 points on ones run
I suspect there is a bug with the bugs. I picked up some bugs on my run to the station and moved them a short distance. But I wonder whether it gave me a bonus based on the distance moved from my home which was about 75 miles away.

Sorry, that should actually have been on two runs. Not sure why I came over all posh!

Well, I'm not anti-cycling, per se, just prefer for it to be separated for Conquercise purposes (but have accepted it's not going to happen). I'm also not actively anti-walking, but feel the "cise" in Conquercise is derived from the word "exercise"... I don't consider my 1.5 mile walks, carrying laptop and wearing suit, that comprise a small part of my commute to be part of my exercise regime, mostly because I strive NOT to exert myself and sweat. Therefore I wouldn't ever consider logging them. It just makes a mockery of the ownership aspects of Conquercise, in the same way that logging separate Garmin activities for in intervals does. That said, and back on topic, a half-dozen traffic lights outside the local schools would probably disincentivise the logging of the school run

But this isn't conquercise - I don't think that walking is counted towards conquercise anyway. And if I was to tell you that I was wearing my trainers, shorts (under tracksuit), long sleaved ron hill running top and nike bright orange micro fleece, along with Hilly gloves, and reebok hat for the school 'run' would that make any difference...it's the only safe way to reach coins accessible from the playground, without being reported to the authorities.

arbester-sometimes the 'cise' from exercise needs to come from other than running-when I came back to running after damaging my back part of getting there was my walking and I even got a prize in the Fetch mile thingee!

PPB - totally comfortable with people capturing all exercise that is specific exercise. Actually, I think I probably sound overly touchy about all of this, so will probably butt out again. The beauty of Fetch games is that they motivate people to get out and move around, by whatever means. I'll get back to focusing on my Exploration targets
VJ - sounds like you were properly dressed for "exercise", indeed!
