Navigating with an enhanced and simplified 1:10,000 OO street map, visit as many checkpoints as you can in the time available, S-punching using the MapRun app on your smartphone, Garmin or Apple Watch.
Explore the area's quiet streets and snickets and well surfaced trails through the town's green spaces. Visit the Crosses in the town square, Brook Wood and more (weather permitting). Even locals will likely discover new paths and places!
