Cleveland Orienteering Klub invites you to an O-CROSS EVENT at COD BECK on Sunday 15th July 2007 |
|
|
What is O-Cross? | O-Cross is a mass start, multi loop orienteering race. There will be three loops all in the same area, totalling around 5km of orienteering at light green standard. All the competitors run the same loops but in different orders so, although there may be people around you, they may not be on the same loop. The winner is the first competitor to cross the finishing line after correctly completing the three loops. | ||||||||||
