Note
A colleague asked me what rogaining is, because she'd been invited by a friend to the Jupiter Creek 6 hour next month. Our conversation went something like this...
Me: It's really cool, you get given a map, and it's got all these controls on it, and they're all worth different points, and your team has some time to plan which of these points you want to go to within the time limit available to you. Oh, and there's great catering at the end!
Her: But how do you know where to go?
Me: You read the map
Her: But how do you know where you're going?
Me: Look, these are the roads, and the creeks, and the hills, they're all on the map
Her (looking crestfallen) Maybe I'll just walk along at the back and let the others navigate
Me: ???
This epitomises the difficulty I've had in getting any of my colleagues to ever come orienteering :( I seriously think she was anticipating that there would be some sort of GPS-like device to tell her where to go!
