The Red Runners promotion gives runners a chance to have a free entry for the Red course at selected CLOK events.

At orienteering events, Red courses are specially designed to give runners with relatively little navigational experience a good run out with enough navigational challenge to keep things interesting.  If you're already good at navigating – at pace – through cosmplex terrain, try one of the more technical courses, such as Brown or Blue.

Our not-so-hidden agenda is to attract more people into orienteering.  We're pretty confident that quite a few people who give orienteering a try via the Red Runners promotion will want to come back for more orienteering and maybe, at some point, will want to join CLOK and get involved with helping to run events.  The combination of physical (running) and mental (navigating) challenges can be quite addictive!

"Free entry" vouchers are available via selected running clubs in CLOK's area.  Each voucher covers your entry fee for a Red course at a CLOK event and hiring an SI card (aka "dibber") to record your progress round the course.
