fetcheveryone May 2014 12:20pm, 13 May 2014 14,264 posts	0 fetcheveryone Hiya Fetchies If you like sharing routes, or if you like taking pictures whilst you're out and about, or possibly both, then give this a try... You can now add a nice pic to each of your routes e.g. http://www.fetcheveryone.com/routes-view.php?id=1705913 to show other runners just exactly how lovely your route is (or conversely, just what you have to put up with). If you make the route public, there's a handy URL for sharing, or a button that will do a Tweet for you. There's also a little voting panel, so you can vote up the ones you like the best (so we can hopefully generate a nice list of the most-loved routes). I know that there are plenty more improvements to be made to the routes tool (particularly if you need to edit an existing route), and I'm working through some of those. I also intend to give you the opportunity to record times against each others routes, so you can do league tables if that's the sort of thing that floats your boat More to come then, but I thought you might like to try the pictures.

faithfulred May 2014 12:43pm, 13 May 2014 404 posts	0 faithfulred Great! I live around there (Attenborough) so I might give that route a try!
fetcheveryone May 2014 1:22pm, 13 May 2014 14,265 posts	0 fetcheveryone It's maybe not the awesome-est of routes, but it's one that I had a picture for. There's a nice path from Attenborough to Trent Lock - do you know that one?
faithfulred May 2014 1:31pm, 13 May 2014 405 posts	0 faithfulred Yeah, that's the route I use for my long runs (or not so long runs as they've become lately). I've been looking to mix things up a bit though as I tend to stick to the same old routes.

fetcheveryone May 2014 1:36pm, 13 May 2014 14,266 posts	0 fetcheveryone Here's another good local one for you - it goes up part of the Erewash canal, as far as Stapleford, then back down through Toton Sidings. Might be a useful way to explore part of the canal without doing the whole thing in one hit: http://www.fetcheveryone.com/routes-view.php?id=275504 The guy who uploaded this one (chrisity) bats for Long Eaton RC, and he knows all the local routes
fetcheveryone May 2014 1:37pm, 13 May 2014 14,267 posts	0 fetcheveryone minardi - it has to be your own route - and there should be a link in a grey box just above the map. Can you see it?
minardi. May 2014 1:41pm, 13 May 2014 2,549 posts	0 minardi. cheers - I hadn't got the route saved Told you I was being blond

fetcheveryone May 2014 2:46pm, 13 May 2014 14,268 posts	0 fetcheveryone There's a lovely circuit there to include in a run I've added a link on private routes now enabling you to switch them to public with one click. It's lovely to see a few people giving this a try - here's one: http://www.fetcheveryone.com/route-1501785

If you like sharing routes, or if you like taking pictures whilst you're out and about, or possibly both, then give this a try...

You can now add a nice pic to each of your routes e.g. http://www.fetcheveryone.com/route-1705913 to show other runners just exactly how lovely your route is (or conversely, just what you have to put up with). If you make the route public, there's a handy URL for sharing, or a button that will do a Tweet for you. There's also a little voting panel, so you can vote up the ones you like the best (so we can hopefully generate a nice list of the most-loved routes).

I also intend to give you the opportunity to record times against each others routes, so you can do league tables if that's the sort of thing that floats your boat

More to come then, but I thought you might like to try the pictures.
