I haven’t had an email maybe a WCP thing at this stage?

I find the whole evidence proof thing clunky annoyed at myself for picking the one without the app but I’m sure they’ll get there I’m guessing they are a new company? And of course only 2 real people sitting back there they must be sick of me 😂

Glad you feel better Elsie and a wise decision you’ll soon catch up.

My gridmaster plan has me a 9ish mile planned today and tomorrow but the weather forecast is awful so let’s see how it goes.

Gridmaster is a big task to take on - good luck with it.
Yes looking back at the email it is specific to WCP but I would assume they'll be doing the same for all events.

I do think they are new to this - probably usually arrange normal races and having to find a new way to earn a living?

It is a huge commitment and my head hurts but I think I may manage it with a grid move for the currently unreachables.

They certainly have a good uptake of participators but I wouldn’t like to be tasked with checking all evidence esp as a lot of line are double runs/walks and a few double run days too.

Sorry you’ve been feeling rubbish Elsie, taking it easy today sounds sensible.

Good luck with Grid Master GG - that will be some achievement, I like the idea of doing it for a badge but I’m not committed enough.

Have run this morning, but haven’t updated my mileage yet, need to do that now to see where I am on the map.

Another 10 ticked off today, I did a couple of detours in the hope they would catch me some squares but they didn't - added an extra mile or two though. I then got caught in a torrential downpour so as I had done more miles than planned (9 was planned) and I'd done the squares I needed I got a lift home.

25 squares to find tomorrow and maybe Monday morning, I'll see how it goes tomorrow. The weather is hideous.

I just looked at your WSW game GG - you are doing so well. Good luck with tomorrow and Monday.

I did just over three and a half miles this morning before the rain started. Tomorrow we are planning a family walk and picnic which should total about 8 miles (haven't told B how far it is - we've been doing 3 -4 miles the last few weekends and he will not be impressed when we tell him it's double! I am baking chocolate chip muffins to sustain us on the way! I'm coming up towards Cardiff.

Now to come up with another plan to occupy my little legs. I might get some extra jobs done at hone now I’m not spending my days plotting Tomorrow’s route.

Thank you. I’ve had a running rest day today but still managed 5.3m walks.

I’ll run tomorrow to round my running miles to 130 and I’m over the moon a kind person on FB has sorted my bib for me as I couldn’t manage to do it on my phone and locked myself out of emails on laptop - far too complicated to update it as I’d never get them back on the phone. It must come from being 50 I can’t work technology anymore 😂
