Never tried the orienteering discipline of TrailO?  Maybe something new to get involved in during  2022.

TrailO has two formats - TempO, the 'sprint' form of TrailO where all competition activity is timed, and PreO, the 'classic' format with generous time limits but with one or more timed controls. More information on PreO and TempO can be found here.
