No controls out this week - we've gone MapRun mad instead! As well as the usual 3 courses, we've also got Yellow and Score courses available. MapRun works really well as it's an open area, so you should get a reassuring beep at every control.
Top Tip: download the course in the app before leaving home - you may not have signal at Burbage!

These courses are in the 'UK' > 'South Yorkshire' > 'Peak District' > 'Burbage Moor' folder.
Thanks to Richard for planning the usual 3 courses, and Ryan for the Score (been on MapRun since early July)

Starts & Parking
The Yellow and Scores start from the gate onto the moor from the main Upper Burbage Bridge Car Park (Gmaps link)
The usual Orange, Medium and Long start slightly further SW (Gmaps link). There is a small layby here, and some generally accepted roadside parking, but you might still be best parking at the main car park and walking the 1km along to the edge of the road to the start.
