I also forgot / was driving home from work … a good test to see what happened … I half suspected it might go red being outside of the time 🤷‍♀️

Same, I forgot to check in after work and went out for a run, then managed to check in late.

I haven't participated in the test dry run but it does give me cause for concern as I'll be running the event with a mate. We'll be running alternate laps. Therefore, I'm going to be out after my first lap, assuming I go first, or else I won't even make the start assuming ai go second lap.

Any way around this? I assume most folks running it solo and therefore likely to complete laps consecutively.

As far as I know it isn’t an event that’s ever been aimed as a “pair” the challenge is to do a lap every hour as an individual otherwise you’d be able to get an hours kip inbetween Laps ?

Can I ask what is probably a silly question:
Are we pausing our Garmin at the end of each lap then resuming at the start of the next one, or saving each lap separately?

About This Thread

Maintained by fetcheveryone
I thought it'd be good to have a thread for discussing F'Laps 2024 (Date 6th July 2024). Follow this thread if interested.

The Rules
1) You must run or walk your chosen distance (a choice of 4.167 miles, 5k, 2 miles or 1 mile) within each hour e.g. 9-9.59am, 10-10.59am, 11-11.59am.
2) Each participant must visit Fetch and hit the "Completed it mate!" link before the hour ends: fetcheveryone.com/flaps-checkin.php
3) If you're finding it too much, you can drop down to a shorter distance, or tap out.
4) The winner is the last person standing in each distance category.
5) You can participate on your own, or get together with other Fetchies.
