As Mariah Carey famously sang “All I ever wanted for Christmas was a new MapRun” (or not). Karen has put together a couple of events for you to run over the Christmas period.
Norwich City Centre
Start Anywhere Score:
This course has Start Anywhere enabled. This means that you can start and finish at any control This mode is great for local people who can start closer to home and for public transport users who can start closer to their arrival point.
Course:
This is a Score course with a 60 minute time limit. There are 40 possible checkpoints. Visit as many checkpoints as you can in the time. Each checkpoint is worth 20 points. There is a 10 point penalty for every minute or part thereof that you exceed the 60 minute time limit. There is a suggested start and finish on the map but you don’t have to use this, pick your own but it MUST be the same for both start and finish
Map:
The map is an Open Orienteering map at a scale of 1:10,000 with 10m contour interval.
Important Notes:
Take great care if parked on the road near a control as when you switch on the app it may register. We suggest you are 100% ready to run when you switch the app on so as not to utilise any of your precious time! If you do have a false start just end your run and start again.
Be particularly careful on this course not to run back through your start point at anytime before you want to finish as you would stop your timing prematurely – plan your route accordingly.

If like me you are still using MapRunF, then please be aware that it has been superseded by MapRun6. MapRunF continues to be supported and is still available in the App Stores.
