Orienteering/ Rogaining

Rogaining is a sport of long distance navigation on foot for teams of two or more over a twenty four hour period. The object of the sport is to score points by finding checkpoints located within a specially mapped area within the allowed time period. As checkpoints can be visited in any order, strategy and teamwork are important features of the sport as well as endurance, stamina and navigational skills, with night navigation a key element. The team members must stay together at all times.

This year at the Rogaine Ireland 2008 event in June, Andrew McCarthy and Moire O.Sullivan retained their 24 hour title.
