Hanneke Apr 2021 1:38pm, 6 Apr 2021 72,255 posts	0 Hanneke Thanks Fetch! I was a tad worried you were monitoring us all and doing all the badges manually!
Hanneke Apr 2021 1:41pm, 6 Apr 2021 72,256 posts	0 Hanneke Jelly, thank you! Yes, I used to walk up steep inclines in fell races and would overtake loads of people running! I think for me there is actually not that much difference between the Nordic Walking if done with dedication rather than taking in the scenery and stop to take photos all the time, and the run/walking that was giving my knee bother. Most importantly, I can do it for longer and more often! So clocking an average of 5 kms a day right now, whereas run/walking it would have been 3 max... and only 3-4 days a week.

fetcheveryone Apr 2021 2:29pm, 6 Apr 2021 25,846 posts	0 fetcheveryone Here are a couple of amendments: 1) Badges all made and automated, as previously mentioned. 2) Castle icons on the map (I am proud of them!) showing each checkpoint 3) Instead of showing the whole route, the initial map is zoomed to show where you are. A bit easier to find yourself, and to check your surroundings. Everything is still there if you zoom out.
