Our third May evening activity is on 20th May in the West End of Glasgow and will use a choice of three Maprun courses set up by Alastair.
Due to recent extension of Glasgow level 3 Covid-19 rules, unfortunately only Glasgow City Council residents will be able to attend on the evening, but others will be able to participate in their own time when guidelines allow.
The course options are Long Urban ~4.5k, Medium Urban ~3k and Short ~1.5k (park-based and suitable for juniors/beginners). The Long course uses a double sided A4 map.
Please sign-up your name here.
Parking/assembly at Kelvingrove Art Gallery (there’s a parking charge there, which can be paid using the Ringo app, location number 20557).
You don’t have to use the Maprun app – we can provide guidance in setting it up on your phone if you haven’t tried it before, but printed maps will be available.
The event will follow orienteering Covid-19 protocols (including competitors must observe social distancing before and after their run). Starts will be 6.00-6.30pm,
Cost members £2 (£1 junior) or non-members £3 (£2 junior) - no cash handling on the night, payable before or afterwards to Clyde account, will provide details after entry.

The “MapRun” orienteering app allows you to set up and take part in “Virtual” orienteering courses using the GPS your smartphone. You run a course using either the map on your phone screen or a paper version, and your phone will automatically beep when you reach the correct location of each control (nothing marking it on the ground). At the end of the course your results and split times can be saved into a results table alongside others who have run the course. Clyde have a number of courses available that you can run any time you want to. They are listed on the SOA website along with all the other courses in Scotland. Click on the title of this item for full details.

Following the last minute cancellation of the Evening Event at Mugdock a fortnight ago, it was a pleasure to see CLYDE members out in force for a very successful Covid-19-compliant urban race at Milngavie on 24th September. Results are here. Thanks to Emma Wilson for planning courses offering some tricky route choices, Rachel Wilson for organising and filling out all the Covid-19 paperwork, Dave Robertson for printing the maps, and to everyone who turned out on a surprisingly pleasant evening. Watch out for the next Covid-19-compliant CLYDE activity soon.

We are delighted to announce the success of the first post-lockdown Clyde race. Results are available here.
We obviously had to make some adjustments to comply with the (very sensible) SOA covid rules and guidelines. In particular, the event was only for club members and you had to pre-enter so that we could allocate start times and avoid congestion. Full details below.
We hope you enjoyed the race, despite the sometimes torrential weather.
Thanks to all who have read many guidelines and filled in many forms to make this possible.
