Suffolk Orienteering Club presents 6 informal evening street-O events this winter, using the Maprun app on your mobile phone.

Each event will be launched on the second Tuesday of the month, but will remain available to run in your own time for 4 weeks following the event date.

The 6-event series will be a mini-league format with prizes awarded at the end of the season for best performance for both men and women. The best five out of 6 scores will be added up for the overall total.

As these events are street events, entries can only be made by over-16s. Under-16s can be accompanied by a responsible adult.

We will meet at or near a pub on the day of the event, and hope that you will join us afterwards for a social drink and/or food (and a debrief).

Don't forget to bring a torch!
