Clubnights

This year we will be offering club night activities every Thursday from April 9th to the end of July. These will be a mixture of our Summer MapRun League which are forest events, Sprint Orienteering Training and “stick-map” MapRun urban activities around Milton Keynes and beyond. All events are free for SMOC members and just £2 for non-members. Starts will be between 6.30pm and 7pm, extending to 7.15pm when it starts to get a bit lighter in the evenings!

We will usually try to start and finish the MapRun urban activities at a pub or café so we can have a drink and a chat after our runs and compare routes!

For all the activities you will need to download the MapRun app to your phone. See our MapRun page for more information. More detailed information on the location of each event will be available nearer the time.

If you are interested in finding out more about planning or organising an urban MapRun activity, then we will be running a training session via Zoom on Thursday 19th March. This will show you how to use Open Orienteering Map to generate a “stick map”. We will also cover choosing the area, best practice for planning, updating Open Street Map, score course vs. linear and final checks. Email Freya to sign up.

Our clubnight co-ordinator is Freya Askham.
