Fitness Training

You do not have to be fit to enjoy the Canterbury Rogaine Series, but it will help you get an edge on the competition! Specific fitness training will involve walking or running in the hills with a mixture of on and off track. Fitness training will improve both your pace and navigation speed.

Navigation Training

Navigation skills get better with practice. Training on maps from previous events can be a great way to brush up your skills before an event. A copy of the 2010 Christmas Twilight Rogaine Map can be found here.

The sport of orienteering can be another great opportunity to improve your skills. The Peninsula and Plains Orienteering club hold regular events in the Canterbury region. See their website for a list of upcoming events and navigation advice for dummies.
