Summer Training 2022/2025- Wildridings-sprint
Berkshire Orienteering (BKO) welcomes you to our Summer Training 2022/2025- Wildridings-sprint MapRun event. There are 11 courses available.
Details
A series of 1.2 -2.2km loops. Note that these all cross minor roads and may mean cutting through parked cars so please be aware of traffic. There will also be blind corners, please be considerate of other users of the area.
Course SL2 has fewer road crossings and would be slightly safer. Junior is a easier technical diffciculty and does not cross any roads and would be safer for younger children.
There are 2 sets of courses here, Short loops 1-4, young junior and long loop were planned for training in 2022. Loops A -D and the clock relay for training in 2025. Note that the 2025 loops are similar to those used in 2022, so please check if mixing these loops that you have different courses. I figure that even if you did the training in 2022, you won't recall the courses after 3 years.
* Map availability- The map download links for the 2025 maps are all active , but those for 2022 are not. I have added these to the main maprun site. When you download the course, you should see a green i (information symbol) next to the course name and this links to the map pdf.
* Course availability- Download links for all courses are available until at least 2026.
* Show track and show location options. The show track and show location options are turned on by default for the 2025 courses. These can be turned off (before you start) by selecting settingst Display Settings > 'Display Track' and 'Display present location'. These are both toggle switches.
Suggest using the courses to focus on:
1. Orienting the map
2. Planning routes (Route choice and executing routes)
3. Keeping map contact.
With no kites in place and many parrallel features, it is easy to lose contact with the map, particularly at speed so aim to keep speed up!
Parking
Wildridings recreation ground car Park.
