You have 60 minutes, and a map with 30 checkpoints to visit. Your goal is to score points by visiting as many checkpoints as you can, and get back to the start within the time limit.
You can choose which checkpoints to visit, in can visit them in any order, via any route. Speed is an advantage, but the fastest runner won’t necessarily come out on top. It’ll take smart planning to find the shortest route worth the most points.
FREE to enter, but please register via Pre-entries so we know how many maps to print.
Download the MapRun app to your phone to use as your timing chip and record your checkpoint visits, load the event using the app. We will provide you with the specially prepared map at the start.
