Post-event social: each event will have a designated pub or bar for a post-event drink (and/or meal if available) – a great way of getting to meet club members!
Safety: Runners must wear hi-vis vest, jacket or other top, and be aware that courses will be crossing roads, some may be busy. A head torch is essential, as is either pen/pencil or smartphone/Garmin/Apple watch for control recording. As the events are held on public roads, event insurance requires that under-16s may only take part if accompanied by an adult.
Score events: The aim of a score event is to score as many points as possible within the time limit. All events will have approximately 30 controls, each worth 20 points. Youwill lose 10 points for every minute or part minute you are late back!
