23Virtual BMbushThe Four Reserves Virtualgaine is local with a mix of bush and street, free and you can do the event as many times as you want. Optimise your route to see if you can clear the course in the 4 hour time limit or explore in different directions.

The event runs Saturday 27th to Monday 12 June inclusive but the course will still be available on MapRun after that time.

Check out the event page for details, formally enter if you want to be part of the results and tell your friends about it. Teslin copies of the map will be available in Paddy Pallin's (Lonsdale St, Civic) from Tuesday until they run out.

Thanks to Jon Glanville for this event.

Thank you all for your patience as we finalised the results for the 2023 ACT Championships 24 hour and 8 hour events.

Congratulations to David Baldwin and Julie Quinn for winning the ACT 24 hour Championships and Sergey Pikuz, Maria Plyashechko and Sergey Kurov for winning the 8 hour event. But massive congratulations to everyone who competed in less than ideal conditions. 

Due to a few issues on the weekend, including the cold and wet weather on Sunday, we did not hold theChamps trophy presentation ceremonies for each event. Champs prizes

If you are a winner, second or third place we can send you your winning certificates. Winning teams in each category for the 8 hour event are eligible for a winners travel mug. Winning teams in each category for the 24 hour Championship are eligible for an engraved winners glass.

In addition, winners of each category of the 24 hour Championship event will have their names engraved on the perpetual trophy. You can choose to have the trophy to display for the year once we have it engraved. We only ask that you return it prior to the event next year!

Please contact Benita Sommerville (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) if you would like to receive your prizes and we will work out a way of getting them to you. 

We did have some issues with some malfunctioning punches. If you think your score is missing some points, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

This year's Go for Gold ACT Championship 24hr event and associated 8 hr event will be held in northern Kosciuszko National Park with the Hash House at Three Mile Dam area and exploring around Kiandra and Mt Selwyn ski field and beyond to Tabletop Mountain.
The course has been set by Lee Rice and Craig Cowan. Much of the area was burnt in the 2019-20 fires so is quite open in many places, as well as naturally having grassy open areas, such as around Kiandra. There is also a lot of interesting remains from the gold mining era at Kiandra across the course. We will provide some suggestions for novice loops that use the well-defined features, and more challenging loops for those looking for a physical and navigational challenge.
ACTRA is trialling an Under 30 category to encourage teams that have graduated from the Youth under 23 category to compete with similar teams. There will be no trophy but there will be certificates and glasses/mugs and the category will be recognized at presentations and in the results.
