Now I need to work out how to spend all those credits...

Is there are a way of telling who else is playing in the area - other than looking at conquercise etc

More ponderings....

If the owner of relay gets 25 points per mile and the runner who moves a relay gets 25 points per mile, do you get 50 points for moving your own relay ?
So, if I spend 500 points on buying a relay, I only have to move it 10 miles to break even ?
Can I specify the direction of a relay when I buy it ?
If it's a random direction and I get West, I can move it 10 miles towards Ludlow and it will probably never move again.
If I could choose North East, then hopefully someone else would keep it moving for me all the way to Lichfield.

Sorry about all the questions, but this is like mountain bike orienteering. It's just the right combination of sport and geekiness that appeals to me.

Love this idea but wish I was a bit further on with running. I don't get very far yet. So, if you can use cycling miles does that mean logging walking as cross training will work too? I walk miles every day... wonderful!

VJ - was that a planned route, or just at random? 'Cos I did 7.7 miles yesterday at random, and only got about 220 credits. No way of seeing who is playing, but you can sometimes get an idea by the number of markers.

PSV - yes, you get points for moving your own relay marker. Yes, you can choose the direction.

TT - yes, walking is ok. It's all exercise.

If you click on the traffic light it tells you who they belong too!

I like the idea of cycle tacks for runners to leave, but there'd have to be one for cyclists to drop, too :-)

I'm a bit depressed about the bit I can't get to, but more about the huge number of other bugs there are in my mile :-O

I'm more depressed about the fact that I'm at -147 already and am on holiday so can do nothing about it for another week!

Ohhhh, I have loads of coins on my map now, thanks :-)

I think I'll avoid the coins on the posho golf course near where I live!
