Street-O Courses
We have a number of street orienteering style courses. These courses are mostly coded as a 60 minute, scored, scatter course, where the aim is to navigate to as many controls as you can in 60 minutes. There are penalties if you run overtime. This is the usual category for walkers. However you are welcome to treat them as a timed scatter course, for a specified number of controls (all 25 or 20, or any 18, 15, 12 or 8 usually), and use your time as your result, ignoring the score. You can download and print the PDF for any course from this page. Then in the MapRun app, "Select Event" → "ACT" → "StreetO" and pick the desired course. A number of the courses are coded as Start Anywhere (SA), which lets you choose any control as your start/finish (and S1/F1 then becomes a normal control).
The current Orienteering ACT Street Series courses are listed here. More courses are shown on the Previous and Expired Courses pages.
