MapRun #9, the penultimate MapRun, this time at Punchbowl in near perfect conditions!

The terrain might've been hilly, but that didn't stop people from getting almost all of the controls. For those that found Euan, did you notice anything different? 🥇🇷🇸

As always, thanks again to all those who came along and we look forward to seeing you for the final event, starting from Princes Square in two weeks time!

P.S. We'll be doing a casual social dinner at Du Cane after the final event. If you're keen to come along then please let us know either in the comments or by sending us a message so we can make a booking for approximate numbers!

The start for MapRun #9 today is down on the main Punchbowl green at the bottom of the bowl. We recommend parking in the overflow carpark as the lower carpark gate may be closed. See you tonight! 🌙

MapRun #8 results and map are now up on Eventor

26/08/2026

MapRun #8 saw competitors back at Riverbend Park, but this time, with courses heading out and around Invermay and Inveresk instead of the Launceston C*D.

With the terrain being relatively flat, competitors covered a lot of distance, but they didn't necessarily find more controls (or Euan), with Euan proving elusive to half the competitors despite his fairly close location to the start! For those that are wondering, Euan was at control 43! Thanks as always to those who came along, we look forward to seeing you at Punchbowl in 2 weeks time!

The start for today's MapRun is on the playground side of the basketball courts at Riverbend Park. From the carpark, head towards the shelter on the far side of the basketball courts. You should see the orienteering banner. This is the same start location as MapRun #3, but we will be heading towards Invermay and Inveresk this time instead of the C*D. See you there!
