Want to participate in a 24 hour rogaine? or a 15 hour rogaine? or even a 6 hour rogaine? Well then this one is for you. The Nigel Aylott 24hr Victorian Rogaining champs are on and everyone (that's right even if you've never rogained before) is welcome to come on down and experience the fun that is rogaining. This event is based in Whroo (near Rushworth). MUMC is planning on entering teams in both the 6 and 14 hour events (with the roving 15 hour event too). 

If you have team members in mind or are looking for people to team up with, come along to the meeting where we will be organising teams. All people are welcome to join, whether it is your first time or your 100th!

One extra thing for this rogaine: the Victorian Rogaining Association (VRA) are planning on organising a bus for people interested in the 24 hour event. We need to let them know if we are interested by the 2nd of October (the day after the meeting) so if you are interested in the 15/24 hour event but cannot make the meeting, please let me know ASAP so I can communicate with the VRA! 

The rogaine is organised by the Victorian Rogaining Association, more info about the event can be found here: https://rogainevic.org.au/vrc24/ 

Note: trip meeting is 2 Tuesdays before the event. This is so we can get teams registered before the cut off date. If you want to attend the trip, but cannot make the meeting, email me or chuck a message in the comments


What is Rogaining?

Rogaining is the sport of distance cross-country navigation in which teams of two to five members visit as many checkpoints as possible in the specified time (usually 6 or 12 hours). Its kind of a mix between trail running/hiking and orienteering.At our meeting we will explain the rules in more detail, and if you want to read more, see here: https://rogainevic.org.au/about/
