This is a bushwalking race organised by the Victorian Rogaining Association. The championships are a 24 hour event, which you are unlikely to enjoy unless you've rogained before. An 8 hour rogaine will be held on the same course. (Not a 15 hour rogaine with a compulsory 9 hour break, as was previously announced.) This is suitable for beginners.
We compete in teams of 2 to 4 people. The organisers place checkpoints on a course in the bush, then give each team a map showing where they are, and start the clock.
Details here. The event will be at Enfield State Forest, south of Ballarat. The VRA will provide a bus from Melbourne on Saturday morning, exact times and stops yet to be announced. Note that the trip meeting is a fortnight before the rogaine. We'll organise teams and transport then, and can't always make space for people after the meeting.
