You don't have to do the same loop each time, so long as your GPS reports the necessary mileage, starting at the top of each hour.
Didn't think of that.
Could combine with a bit of Conquercise on a flat route.
Haven't done the Leeds - Liverpool canal yet.

I'm thinking it'll need to be in separate files, one for each hour. Otherwise there's no indication of whether individuals are still playing along.

Does it make sense to have it on Fetch Everyone day?

I *think* we might be in the Lake District that weekend, and I might be swimming or supporting swimmers - but I'm not sure just yet.

I know A levels are a thing for you so... A levels. I think we are done by the middle of June.

I'm imagining a page a bit like this for the participants.
There'd be a countdown clock at the top, and you'd have to hit the "I'm ready" button just before each hour is due to begin. Then you can faff about with satellites for a minute or so if you need to before heading off; and so long as your watch saves the run, it won't matter if it doesn't get synched up straight away. The "I'm ready" button lets us all know who is ready to go again, and the detail will show up as and when.
The leaderboard will show the number of competitors at each stage, with a F'Laps totaliser, and a grade that shows whether they are attempting the 'Full' distance (4.1667mi), or the 5k, or the mile. You could start out attempting the full, and drop back a grade if necessary.

Yep, that's a big consideration here too. I think The Man-Boy's exams run into early July.

I love Fetch.
We had all those sensible* suggestions, yet here we are with F'Laps.
*not that sensible at all really.
