4. Ready? On your mark, get set, GO! Make your way around the course.
  • Open the MapRun app.
  • Press "GOTO START" and the map with course will appear on your screen.
  • Check the orange time box – the Time field displays elapsed time, the Remaining field displays the duration of the course.
  • Check Visited field – to see your status – at this stage “Not Started / nn” where nn is the number of controls in the course.
  • Find the start location in the real world – you need to pass through it to commence the timing and start your course.
  • Each control you visit earns you points according to its decimal – a control numbered ‘38’ is worth 30 points, likewise ‘42’ is worth 40 points.
  • Note that there is a score penalty for lateness – you lose 30 points for each minute late. Tap “Start the GPS”, then make your way to the start.

Check your results within the Maprun app, or online here >>.
