MapRun is a free app you can download to your phone (iOS or Android) or watch, which allows you to run orienteering courses at any time. The app uses GPS to register when you pass control locations and enables you to compare your time and route with other runners.

For OUOC members, please see our termcard and weekly emails for details about upcoming MapRun events.

For non-OUOC members, during Oxford term times we organise some MapRun evening events, some of which we open up to local orienteers / runners / interested people. In the past we have had a wide range of events, from novelty scores to chasing sprints, and details of our upcoming events can be found below.

These are casual events and hence there is no entry fee, but we ask that you register your interest by filling in the following sign-up form (at the latest by the day before the event, so we can print enough maps).

Our events will be largely in well-lit areas of Oxford, but during the winter months it will be dark in the evenings so we recommend bringing a headtorch or being prepared to use your phone torch to read the map!

If you have any queries, please contact us at training@ouoc.org.uk.
