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 winner last year was a Canadian woman who did it in 11 days. The first person out and back was 18 days. Crazy people.

I think it’s going to take me 11 days to learn how to input mileage without having to go back to the link in the instruction email every time. I’m sure the interface is better, but I haven’t mastered it yet! 🙁

I've just been on the website to log my 6 mile run for today & noticed that the person in first place has already run 356 miles. At first I thought it was the mythical Gingerbread Man we were all chasing, but no, it's some Canadian runner.
The run hasn't even been going for a full week yet!

Is the elapsed time a new feature this year? I've covered 26 miles in four hours, which I feel pleased with in a virtual kind of a way!

Now in the Memphis suburbs.

After I'd entered today's run, I thought I'd have a look at the leaderboard. Some chap has already run across Tennessee & is on his way back. (BAT).

Excuse my French, but "Bloody hell" How do these people find the time to rack up such large distances in such a short space of time. By my rough arithmetic, he must be running around 45 miles a day.
