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!

Well done jelly. It is well deserved not just for the phenomenal way you completed the challenge, but also for the way you support others and contribute.

Well, this is rather a nice place. I think I could be happy here. Do you think it was originally a police station or telephone exchange?

Nicely judged, Ness!

Some challengers seem to end their activity in an "interesting" place and some are regularly marooned out on the B-roads of England's (and Wales's) green and pleasant land. Here's a question for all you challengers!

Yep I just land where I land, on the days I tried to land at a castle I usually hadn’t looked at the map closely enough and overshot a tad!

I did have a rough idea of the number of miles I needed to do today to get to Chester. I don’t normally plan that well. 😁

I'm just over 10k out from Chester Castle.

But there are more photogenic spots in Chester anyway - just we don't go past most of them!!

I've moved away from Chester Castle now, having had a quick walk to the shops. It's interesting that my new location is on a road I actually ran down during the Chester Marathon in 2019. I was going in the opposite direction to the way I'm going for this challenge but it's still a road I've used! For real! ;) :)
