Who would have predicted that we would be in another Lockdown, this time last year? To say it has been an 'interesting' year is a bit of an understatement. EckO hopes that you are all in good health and spirits and focusing on the future. With that in mind EckO would like to draw your attention to what you can do now and some things to look forward to.
We wish all our EckO members a Happy New Year and we look forward to getting back to full orienteering activities as soon as Scottish Government Guidelines allow.
The controls for the Dunstaffnage ROMP have now been collected in. However, if you wish you can still download a map, run round the course and visit the control sites. Please log your visit (ROMP) in the link below.
Many thanks to Finlo for collecting in the controls.
Following the recent training camp in Edinburgh, Iris has now been selected to the British Orienteering Talent Squad for 2020/2021. This means lots of hard work and dedication ahead for Iris but what a fantastic achievement and opportunity. Congratulations also to all the other athletes who achieved selection. EckO look forward to hearing about the many adventures Iris is sure to have.
Huge congratulations to Iris MacMillan who has been invited to attend the Talent Assessment Camp by British Orienteering at Edinburgh in October
Get your orienteering fix using MapRun. Urban maps are available for Oban with more traditional orienteering maps available at Ganavan, Sutherland's Grove and Tralee with more in the pipeline.
Orienteering is a sport that combines map reading and running. Competitors have to find their way between a series of checkpoints, called controls, as quickly as possible. There’s no set route between the controls, so you have to decide which way to go and then find your way there without getting lost.
