👪 Who Can Join?
Everyone! All ages and fitness levels are welcome. Run, walk, or even push a pram. Compete individually or in a group. You don't need to be an orienteering club member and you don't need to know anything about orienteering or navigation, this is your opportunity to learn. Newcomers welcome
🏃♀️ What’s the Experience Like?
You have 40 minutes to navigate through various checkpoints around the suburb using the MapRun smartphone app (free) and a paper map. Test your skills, race the clock, and have a blast!
Unlike a traditional race, you create your own course! With 20-25 checkpoints worth varying points, strategy is key. Fastest doesn’t always win – smart navigation does. Avoiding a hill could be your secret to victory! 🗺️
Your phone will beep at the start, at each checkpoint, and at the finish. Results are uploaded instantly so you can compare routes and scores with others. Plus, you’ll receive a summary of the results, by email, after the event. 🏅
Turn up from 5:30pm, pay for a map and load the course onto your phone; start your run when you are ready; finish by 7:30pm at the latest. ⌚
👀 Note: 5:30pm-6:30pm will be a twilight run and 6:30pm to 7:30pm will be a night run. Twilight runs are more suitable for families. Night runners require a head torch or similar and all participants under 14 years must be supervised by a responsible adult.
Come and join the fun!
