👪 Who Can Join?
Everyone! All ages and fitness levels are welcome. Run, walk, or even push a pram. Compete solo or bring your friends and family for a group adventure!
What’s the Experience Like?
You have 40 minutes to navigate through various checkpoints around the area using the MapRun smartphone app 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 results summary by email after the event. 🏅
