| Juju Jay | Oct 24 2014, 9:55pm | Night Navigation Training Session by Paul Nolan When: 7pm Monday Nov 3rd Where: T 130 922 Details: 3 hours of learning to find your way in the dark relying on map & compass. Navigating in darkness while unlikely for runners requires the same skills as route finding in dense mist (very likely) or whiteouts (very unlikely but you never know). Who: Improver/experienced navigators wishing to improve further. You will need to be comfortable with map and compass on the hill to gain from this session. What to bring: Besides your map & compass, lots of warm clothes and a head torch. We will be walking with plenty of stops on an Irish hillside, in the dark, in November. Be sensible. All for a special rate of 35euro with Mud Sweat & Runners limited of 12people and you may book on this email mudsweatandrunners@gmail.com www.mudsweatandrunners.weebly.com www.facebook.com/mudsweatandrunners About Paul: Paul grew up racing with a map in his hand, orienteering and hill running, both home and abroad. He has been involved in the surveying and drawing of Orienteering maps and was an Irish Orienteering Association (IOA) event controller. Currently training to become an International Mountain Leader (IML) he holds the Mountain Leader (Summer) award issued by Mountaineering Ireland. He is also an Emergency Medical Technician, handy if we have a mishap on the hill.
