We had a great turnout for the Street Series event in Glastonbury and we made the best of a damp evening. Fortune favoured the brave with those navigating the Tor bagging the biggest points totals. Well done to winners Adam on the Long and Emily on the Short courses. We look forward to seeing you at the final event of the series on 19th Feb at Killams, Taunton
Humble apologies to competitors on the Long course who were affected by controls 10 and 13 being transposed. It was the Planner’s human error – Sorry.

MapRun doesn't need kites, control units or dibbers. All users need is the smartphone (or smartwatch) app. Immediately after your run, you can upload your score and time to the web and compare how you did with others.
It's worth reading our MapRun User Guide if you are new or having problems.
Parking will be in the St Johns car park (free after 6pm).
Course Information
Two courses are offered, Long and Short. Long and Short use exactly the same controls and you can decide between them on the night.
All are "Score" courses, meaning there isn't a set order to the controls you visit.
Short Score - the order of the controls you want to visit is entirely up to you.
Long Score - odds and evens format used. That is, there are two sets of controls, odd numbered controls and even numbered ones, one set tackled after the other (running through two of a particular colour sets your first block and then two of the other colour switches you). Once you switch to the second set, you cannot go back to the first set. The control circles on the map are coloured red on one set and blue on the other. The colours are meaningful only for the Long score.
The optimum routes are typically between 7.5 and 10 km for the long and 6 to 7.5 km for the short.
Each course has a time limit of 50 minutes.
Points will be deducted at a rate of 30 points per minute for each minute or part minute you're late back.
Points values for controls are variable and denoted by the first number of the control, e.g. 62 scores 60 points.
