Ronners Aug 2018 3:26pm, 23 Aug 2018 110 posts	0 Ronners I have a friend who sometimes prints off the grid and then marks fiendishly difficult routes upon it in an effort to maximise the amount of squares captured. Worse still this sad individual has also been known to take the map out on his (or her) runs to ensure they run down all the right cul de sacs.

Bintmcskint Aug 2018 4:41pm, 23 Aug 2018 41,049 posts	0 Bintmcskint My friend is getting to know her home square pretty well but also takes a little piece of paper with notes and has been known to get the phone out like McG's friend. This friend also ran along a road today as close to the fence as it was possible to get to ensure that she got a hard to reach square. And the same friend now has "a thing" where, if she needs to nip a little way up and down a road to get a square, she always runs to the first silver car.
