orient-deering! is the newest race in the trail boss running stable and is formulated to be an introduction to navigating and map reading, will still be fun for those amongst us who are really competent you'll just get lost less!

at registration everyone will get a custom waterproof map from Harvey's (hopefully!) then you will be released into the wild at intervals with every second team going counter clockwise.

the course will change every year, this edition will be roughly14-18 miles (depending on route choice!) with the major control points setup as aid stations.

nearer the time i am planning to put on a few basic nav courses for free with details mailed out to signups.

if you are still on board after reading above please sign up online in pairs or threes and when prompted during signup record your partner/partners names so i can allocate your teams and still record you info securely.
