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!

My running will drop considerably in December - she said the same about November ;-)

Hope you took Fizz’s tip Angus. I was mid-way through 18 miles at that point.

Ah, thank you. But I’ve only just logged back on after an evening of cleaning kit and then a lovely family roast dinner. Appreciate your kindness though.

Next week’s going to be a good week :)

I'm clearly doing something wrong here. The person who overtook me earlier today (probably about lunchtime I think) is now 120 points ahead of me. I'm not sure I've even got the skill to increase by 20 a day never mind 120 in the space of about 6 hours!

Is that ZenTaoPlurp Baroness? U think hes gained about 500-600 ppints simce Friday morning (I am very much looking over my shoulder now! 😂). I haven’t had as much time for day trading the last two days with my own running, but even if I had, I don’t think I could gain that much.

It is jenny, yes. Thank you for your tips by the way I bought and sold you a couple of times over the weekend. I think I need to start paying more attention to other threads etc too - Run the Sum for example I don't think had even got on my radar until recently - now I am aware of it I might be able to trade in a less scattergun approach than I've currently been doing!

And someone mentioned a 'Thoroughbred' badge earlier too - what's that all about please and what do you need to do to get it?

The Thoroughbred badge is earned if someone buys you, holds onto you and then sells you for a 100 point profit. So you need to be a Runner to have any chance of getting it. The Trader gets a badge as well, the "Eye for a bargain" badge for the 100 point profit.

Run the Sum is a good way of getting a few reliable points each day - I'll be running 4-6 miles Mon - Thur this week, as will the other RtSers. We might split the distance into more than one run though so don't sell too soon if day trading, BBL.

Sorry ZTP ;-) Well done on your rapid rise up the table.

Baroness, I’ve started watching the RtS and Streaky Bacon threads in the last few days as well. I’m not 100% sure, but I think the Thoroughbred badge is if you make a 100 point gain and someone sells you (so it’s the badge the runner gets, rather than the one the seller gets). Not one I’ll ever get.

How To Play
As a trader, your job is to pick the runners that you think will increase in value.

You start with 1000 credits, and can use these to purchase shares in runners. If you think their mileage is about to drop, then it's time to sell.

Runner values are calculated based on the total volume of running mileage completed in the last 90 days. Values are recalculated as soon as a runner has logged a run.

Runners get a notification when you buy shares, but not when you sell them.

The value of a runner can go up or down, but don't threaten them. Have fun!
