We sadly announce the "Back to the Bay" rogaine is cancelled.

Just when we were all starting to get excited about a trip to the coast, public health advice in NSW around community sport just issued states "Cease activities that result in the mixing of participants and staff from different regions" for at least the next 6 weeks.

We hope to be able to reschedule this event some time in the future.

Great to see some new and some familiar faces over the weekend as rogaining started to return to "in-person" events. The event will now continue as a virtual MapRun event - there will be some maps available at Paddy Pallin, and the event will appear in the MapRunF app. Maps are available here in A3 size or 2 x A4 pages for printing, along with the course setters' notes and control descriptions. 

Saturday night had some drizzle and mist but cleared to a starry night. The calm conditions meant it didn't get too cold, but visibility made navigation challenging. Sunday was clear and sunny but with a steady breeze blowing. Conditions underfoot were damp and slippery with a bit of mud in places.

A big thanks to all the volunteers who made the event happen. Stephen Goggs wrangling toilets and running admin, Jonathan Fearn, Ciaran Lane, Dane Roberts and Keira Banks for setting and hanging the controls on a great course, and Kelvin Peh for managing First Aid.

The Winter 4 hour virtual rogaine in Jerrabomberra and Queanbeyan has now finished, after being run for an extra two weeks due to popular demand! It was a rogaine for everyone with a little bit of everything, from trails to footpaths, hills to flats, and tracks to bush-bashing. Well done to all who entered and we hope you enjoyed it each time you went out there.

Results are now available on the event page. In the meantime, keep your eyes peeled for entries opening to the upcoming Day/Night/Cycle rogaine at Kowen Forest and Sparrow Hill!

20WinterJerra2Following a successful virtual event at Mt Rogers, the Winter 4 hour rogaine will once again be held virtually. Between Saturday 11 July and Sunday 19 July 2020, explore the scenic trails and suburbia of Jerrabomberra and Queanbeyan. 

Check out the pics in the event photo album - lots of interesting places to see and things to find.

A virtual rogaine has a map but no physical controls in the trees or anywhere else. Instead you will need to download the MapRunF App to a smartphone to score the virtual controls. More about this on the event page.

enter eventEntry is free, although we encourage you to enter early - by Monday 6 July please - so we know approximately how many maps to print. 

You can print your own map or collect a Teslin one from Paddy Pallin in Lonsdale Street, Braddon, from Thursday 9 July. Course setters notes, instructions to get to the start and a copy of the map to print if you prefer will be on the event page from Thursday 9 July as well.

Happy rogaining!
