Welcome to the 2nd event of our Summer Sundown Street Score Series for 2014/15. Each event is a mass start Score event (get as many as you can) over 60 minutes run during twilight on a map with streets and reserves. Each control has the same value - 1 point; clip the most controls to win. You may run as a team, but this is not a team event like a rogaine.
This event is not suitable for young orienteers; we are not offering a Park course or any Easy courses. We are using our brand new IOF colour map at 1:10,000 of Arundel, close to the Motorway in north central Gold Coast. All courses run across and along streets and through unlit reserves. The courses are relatively straightforward, but you will be running at dusk and after dark, so they will be more technically challenging. You need a good torch or headlamp and ideally carry a spare. Please also carry your mobile for safety.
You may complete your course on foot or using a Mountain Bike or similar sturdy bicycle.
