Event Description
To interweave with the WENT events, we are putting on some Wednesday Evening training activities using some classic Map Runs that can keep us going through the winter nights and still be open to all comers.
The first event is in East Belfast.
Meeting at Tim Horton’s at Connswater Shopping Centre, Belfast, BT5 5DL at 7:10pm to jog out to the start location for 7:30pm start.
If you have been Sporteering pre-covid you will know the drill, but remember your hi-viz and headtorch. If you haven’t been before please do come and read on for the details.
This is urban score orienteering. 45 minute time limit, with 10 points lost per minute late. All controls are worth between 10 points. There is no flag nor SI unit at the control location. You verify visiting the control site with the Maprun6 app.
