Happy Grrrr - when I read your post I initially thought how rude not knowing the context 're previous page until I paged back to catch up with the thread. For a moment I though you wetre talking about those larger sized runners LOL

Linds, yea you can go back in WebFMS to look at history on volunteers. Unfortunately the URL for the journo report doesn’t have a date in it.

Leicester pr core teams doing outstanding work today.

Leicester Victoria Park had a scanner fail, so have spent much of the day updating people's results manually. Leicester Braunstone Park had a locked gate and had to swiftly redesign the route to accommodate this.

Splendid work!

It sounds like there have been a few scanner related issues today. I think Walsall also had an issue with one of the scanners.

Ah. I hadn't realised there wasn't a date in the URL (we rarely add a run report.)

The only scanner issue I had today was self inflicted! I (having completed my 249th run and having scanned 8 times before) managed to scan the ED’s finish token and barcode the wrong way round! You’d think that between us one of us would have realised in time :-)

Thurso had some voluntourists scanning with the app. Worked a treat!

They also had video of a Friday night 'water feature' which would have cancelled the event: a storm overflow that turned into a waterfall cascading into the course. Luckily the rain relented, the water returned to more normal levels, the debris was removed by two hard working volunteers, and we all got a run.
