Hanneke Apr 2021 10:53am, 1 Apr 2021 72,087 posts	0 Hanneke I am in too, assuming that this can be done with logging manually? I can't connect the Garmin (301) to Fetch as there are no servers for it...
jelly (limegreenjelly) Apr 2021 10:53am, 1 Apr 2021 441 posts	0 jelly (limegreenjelly) I’m running 3 marathons this weekend starting tomorrow! It should be a good start for me! How many castles will I be passing in those first 78 miles???
Oranj Apr 2021 10:54am, 1 Apr 2021 2,521 posts	0 Oranj Yep, I'll be at work over Easter too, probably just half-days though. Gonna make a good go of the weekend start, whatever. I like this challenge, I've not done a virtual ultra before.

♪♫ Synge ♪♫ Apr 2021 10:59am, 1 Apr 2021 39,626 posts	0 ♪♫ Synge ♪♫ Wow, jelly! It sounds as if you will be on the first page of the leaderboard for a while! There is a castle at pretty much exactly every 50 miles. The first are Caerphilly (50 miles), Chepstow (100 miles) and Monmouth (150 miles). (If you pay close attention, the route does pass one or two others along the way too!)
.B. Apr 2021 11:25am, 1 Apr 2021 42,208 posts	0 .B. Fetch, will hiking automatically log for this challeneg or do I need to log as walking? I’m quite excited, thanks Fetch and Synge.
fetcheveryone Apr 2021 11:27am, 1 Apr 2021 25,802 posts	0 fetcheveryone Currently it's 'walking' only - but I don't have a problem with including hiking. Could you send me a feedback to remind me? I am currently battling the EA secretaries portal, and it's taking all my energy not to pop my head
Columba Apr 2021 12:37pm, 1 Apr 2021 20,974 posts	0 Columba All my walks and runs are logged manually, Henneke. Fetch has never complained. Owlie (and slightly on the same subject) could you get a pedometer and calculate your in-work walking mileage from that? And log manually? (I haven't even signed up for it yet. No real hope of achieving 600 miles, but I notice several others have said the same thing)

Not gonna hit the deadline?
