Is anyone else on CityStrides? This is a site where you can monitor your process in running every street in a town or city. I'm using this as the main focus for my running during lockdown, since I can't go anywhere further afield, and I've now got over 50% of Leicester completed. That's over 1500 streets.
citystrides.com

It colours in purple all of the streets you have done. This is my map of Leicester but the site also has a lifemap of everywhere I've run.

In the top right there’s a drop down menu and Settings is the option to choose. In that you can set your default city.

that's where I'm struggling - that dropdown doesn't allow me to do anything

Hmm. It was slow when I checked it but worked fine.

Ah, OK. I do subscribe as I use it a lot but I don't think it's necessary to do that. I think it's similar to Fetch in that it's one guy's project and subscribers get some benefits like no adverts.

Looks good, just syncing my history. With WSW and Fetchpoint I reckon I’ve been down quite a few streets around here!

Yes, when I started about a quarter of my Leicester map was already coloured purple as a result of Fetchpoint. I'm still discovering small sections even close to home that I've not run down yet. There's a tool that shows you what "nodes" you've not run through yet.
