Some of you have been eagerly awaiting the Eryri Orienteers Winter Night Nav Series, and attached here are the fixtures list, starting on Thurs 3rd November, at Bethesda. 6.45pm from the Douglas Arms.
Each event lasts 1 hour only and can be undertaken by singles, pairs, or even teams. They are an excellent winter training session, involving speed training, and improve your navigation sense along the way. No experience necessary.
You’ll get an excellent workout, usually involving some hill work, and exercise your brain too. They all start and finish at a pub, so they’re also a great social gathering.
It’s for all ages, juniors included, and they can run with seniors. The fastest runner doesn’t always win!

It has been suggested that we should make available to purchase some bike style tops. You know the ones with the short zip, pockets at the back and sleeves. A lot of runners also bike so we thought it was a good opportunity to have some more Eryri kit! On a practical level it has been suggested that the pockets are ideal for kit when running (saves using a bumbag) and also ideal for those autumn day runs when a vest is a bit skimpy but any more clothing and you’ll boil!
Please could you let a member of the committee know if you might be interested in one (I have already told myself!) and we’ll crack on getting some ordered. Designs/styles are being looked into at the moment so let us know and we’ll get them sorted.
