More reasons to go orienteering.

However it doesn't explain why there are Grumpy Old Orienteers (to borrow a concept from CompassSport). Perhaps if you have too much green exercise you get depressed when you have to stop?

And if you have municipal parks near you and the mapping effort available* why not create new resources for the club and put on a few informal Park-Os. It does work - my club is on its third year of summer evening mini-events based on this format.

* if no surveying effort available why not try print aerial photos of the park from Google instead, with a bit of photo-shop you can design a course with a difference (just remember that the dot may someone reading a book and not a useful metal post)
