Very inspiring discussion about orienteering.


We managed to cover even a wide range of people from 19-72 years old.


There was a great agreement on the best aspects of orienteering to :


- Being in nature, feeling stress free


- Ideal place would be to do it next to some river, where there is fresh air and beautiful views.


-to be with a nice group of friends in small teams of 3.


- Exciting moments could be how to make shortcuts and get ahead of others. 😀


- After running having food at the end together. All agreed that a good lunch or dinner with all the participants of the event would be an important element to the event. ,🐻🐹🐰🦝🦊🐶🐒


CONCLGLUSIONS,:


We want to enjoy and have fun. Competition is one thing while being focused more on the enjoyment of the event with the nature; friends & food elements was the highest motivational factor or criteria for participation.
