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!

The 04:00 update has my yesterday's miles on it.

I'm already over 2,000 places ahead of my bib number, which I presume I can equate with my starting position. Forging up through the field after one day! 😉

I have got into the tracker on Chrome this afternoon. :-)

When I select "Tracking with Map" and enter my bib number, I get a map with my location shown by a red pin. I have seen screenshots where an individual's location is shown on a visible track of the route (rather than in an unmarked field, which is where I seem to be!) with an info box. Do you know how to generate this?

Not a clue. I've seen those from the first day or two and maybe they are no longer trying to produce that because it's even slower than what we have now? NDWDave? Think you posted an image like that?

Thanks for the update Vixx.

With over 17,000 people I can see how it is (a) a lot to handle and (b) more than they probably expected.

Interesting that the geofit link is obviously taking the data from the GVRAT site as it’s not giving my correct total .... just the lagged data on the race website 😥
