Mud, sweat and orienteers…

 
Stodge, Eat Naturalist and Orienteer emailed us the other day. If you are like me, you may be wondering ‘what on earth is an orienteer?’. I’ve since found out that orienteering is a ‘challenging, outdoor adventure sport that exercises both the mind and the body’. The aim is to navigate between control points on a map and decide the best route to complete the course, in the quickest time by jogging, running, walking (or even in some cases, mountain biking). Sounds brilliant but I think I’ll stick with my car and SatNav for now, if that’s OK? Stodge is also a keen cyclist and he sent in this picture of himself at a three hour, mountain bike orienteering event in December.
