SROCkite.gif (2521 bytes) Maprun courses post street O

We are piloting a number of maprun versions of the Night Street League (NSL) events. These will be made available the day after the event. They will be 60 min score events consisting of a subset of the controls. They can be run at anytime but you should wear appropriate kit for the time of day & weather conditions. Juniors (u16) must only run if accompanied by an adult at all times. A run on these courses will not count as a NSL score. The map file can be downloaded from www.goorienteering.org.uk, search for the event location (eg Heysham). Scan the QR code on the map to load the course into maprun. The courses will be available until 30 sept the following year. Please note that the courses have not been test run, GPS quality may vary and changes are liable to appear in urban terrain.
