MapRun in Autumn 2024

MapRun will be mainly urban on Tues Club Nights this Autumn. The next two events are Leicester Forest East on 8th October and Bennion on 15th October. LFE will use an experimental style urban map with lighter colours. View the legend here.

MapRun uses GPS signals to your phone (or smart watch) instead of physical control sites. Your times are recorded and displayed on the MapRun app.

Introduction to MapRun

The MapRun software is easy to use for planning and uploading courses. If you are interested, please let Roger Edwards know.

Coalville Urban – Results

Results are now published and are on Routegadget.

Note from the Controller: I hope that most of you enjoyed today’s event. The weather helped make a great day. We had a lot of appreciative feedback. Unfortunately we encountered a small number of mapping errors. After careful consideration we decided that the errors near control 6 on course 4 created significant disadvantage depending on the route choice. Therefore we have voided the leg between controls 5 and 6 on Course 4. We are aware of other issues but decided they were not sufficiently significant to need action.
