This years FinchCoast-O will be held on Thursday 3rd September at Bramshill Plantation at 7:00pm. There will be nibbles and prizes in the bar afterwards at the Sports and Social Club.For those of you that haven’t done a FinchCoast-O before it’s a simple orienteering course where you are given a map and then collect a number of checkpoints as quickly as you can before returning to the start to mull over your navigation with everyone else. It’s really not too taxing and I would encourage everyone to have a go as a change from the regular Thursday night run. If you want to run in a pair or larger group then that’s fine. There will be two courses, a short course with slightly easy navigation and a medium with tougher navigation. Neither course should take more than an hour for anyone and probably closer to 45mins.We will meet at Bramshill at about 7pm, I’ll do a quick briefing and then get everyone started as soon as possible. The start is near the carpark at Bramshill Plantation - North side of road through Bramshill Forest.
