Christmas Leader Board

The 2021 Christmas Challenge Leader Board is now active, though it may lag a day or two behind your efforts.

If you run a course outside the UK/Gloucestershire folder, you'll need to let us know about it, as we only monitor courses in our folder, plus a small number from the S Wales folder. Email maprun@ngoc.org.uk with details of courses you have run which were downloaded from other than UK/Gloucestershire.

The rules are as last year, except that this year you need a minimum of 10 runs to qualify for chocolate

⭐ Represents a score of 600 or more, for standard score courses, and membership of the elite 600 club
🤬 Represents a mispunch which we have deemed acceptable for this competition!

MapRun Gloucestershire

The 2024 MapRun season is rolling towards a close on 18 December, and we are starting to look at our programme for 2025. We aim to have another 20 or so runs during the year, a mix of winter night street races and summer evening semi rural ones, and we need people to plan them. They are pretty straightforward to plan, and we have a good list of possible venues, though you may have your own ideas as to where we could go. If you fancy planning one, email maprun'at'ngoc.org.uk and we can discuss options and opportunities. You don't have to be an expert MapRunner; we'll help you along the way. And if you are new to MapRun, and wonder what it's all about, go to ngoc.org.uk/maprun-gloucestershire and read up about it. It's a great way to get some exercise, learn a bit of map reading, and explore places you may not have visited before around the county. ... See MoreSee Less

Well, what a fun time we had at Newnham last evening, thanks to MapRun's Odds and Evens scheme, clever planning by Abi Jones and Nicki Pettiford, and a lovely evening with a wonderful moonrise, in no way done justice on a micky mouse phone photo! By the way, spot the lone paddler waiting for the bore, due through in about half an hour! Almost everyone got the hang of the intricacies of odds and evens scoring on a course where every control you pass is registered, whether odd or even, and the system worked perfectly. Then on top of that delicious Welsh cakes and tiffin to replace the normal Lidl offerings! The general view was that it was a most enjoyable change from the normal scoring, but not to be repeated too often; it adds too much thinking🤨.Our next run, next Thursday, is in Hereford, and then in early October we are on the western edge of Gloucester, taking in Alney Island and the city centre, so look out for details soon here and on the website, for both of these races. Entries are open already on Fabian4. ... See MoreSee Less

Thanks and well done to everyone who made it to Berry Hill last night; the rain just about held off, but the going was very wet underfoot, and very dark for early September in the woods. Our next run, in Newnham on the 18th September, will be somewhat different in format. Details will appear shortly, but in essence, due to the lack of accessible paths up the hill West of the village, we will be running an Odds and Evens course on a 1:7,500 map, focussing on the village and the paths immediately around it. Of course, with satellite punching, you can't avoid punching odd controls when doing evens, and vice versa, but MapRun provides rules for helping to prevent inadvertent 'set' switching, and clever planning should also reduce the challenge somewhat. We'll explain how all this works in the event details, but book the date - 18 September - for what should be a fun challenge. ... See MoreSee Less

MapRun Gloucestershire

Our series of late Summer MapRuns is now published. We have a mix of venues, some largely urban, some semi-rural. These are ideal races for people looking for pleasant early evening running, or getting fit for more serious orienteering and other races towards the Autumn. As usual, the format is simple; you have 60 minutes to collect as many points as possible by visiting checkpoints of varying value. So picking a route that you can do in the time allowed whilst visiting as many high scoring controls as you can is key.That said, you don’t have to be competitive; if you just fancy a stroll or jog around some lovely local towns, villages and countryside you will be made most welcome. All you need is the MapRun App on your smartphone; the App will record your progress, give you a satisfying beep as you find each checkpoint, and will save your results to the MapRun system when you finish. You can pre-enter at Fabian4.co.uk, which is preferred, so that we know how many maps to print, or you can just turn up on the day, and hope that we have enough maps for you. It costs £5 to enter, for which you get third party liability insurance, a nice waterproof map that you can use again and again, and a cake or two at the Finish!Next week we will be in Ledbury on the 22nd August....details at ngoc.org.uk/event/ledbury-2024 ...

We have decided to postpone the Cirencester Maprun due to a lack of entries! Maybe due to the very late publication of details, and everyone being busy elsewhere. We will reschedule it for sometime in August or September, so look out for further information in due course. ... See MoreSee Less
