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!

Hiya Fetchies :-)

If you like sharing routes, or if you like taking pictures whilst you're out and about, or possibly both, then give this a try...

You can now add a nice pic to each of your routes e.g. http://www.fetcheveryone.com/routes-view.php?id=1705913 to show other runners just exactly how lovely your route is (or conversely, just what you have to put up with). If you make the route public, there's a handy URL for sharing, or a button that will do a Tweet for you. There's also a little voting panel, so you can vote up the ones you like the best (so we can hopefully generate a nice list of the most-loved routes).

I know that there are plenty more improvements to be made to the routes tool (particularly if you need to edit an existing route), and I'm working through some of those. I also intend to give you the opportunity to record times against each others routes, so you can do league tables if that's the sort of thing that floats your boat :-)

More to come then, but I thought you might like to try the pictures.

Great! I live around there (Attenborough) so I might give that route a try!

It's maybe not the awesome-est of routes, but it's one that I had a picture for. There's a nice path from Attenborough to Trent Lock - do you know that one?

Yeah, that's the route I use for my long runs (or not so long runs as they've become lately). I've been looking to mix things up a bit though as I tend to stick to the same old routes.

I'm being a bit blond - where do you add the photo? Presumably you have to have saved the route somewhere first?

Here's another good local one for you - it goes up part of the Erewash canal, as far as Stapleford, then back down through Toton Sidings. Might be a useful way to explore part of the canal without doing the whole thing in one hit:

The guy who uploaded this one (chrisity) bats for Long Eaton RC, and he knows *all* the local routes :-)

minardi - it has to be your own route - and there should be a link in a grey box just above the map. Can you see it?

I spent many an evening in the late 70's walking the dog round Attenborough :-)

There's a lovely circuit there to include in a run :-)

I've added a link on private routes now enabling you to switch them to public with one click.

It's lovely to see a few people giving this a try - here's one:
