OSS Event January 2012 (Oxford City Centre)

The first race of 2012 will be around the city centre and has been planned by John Owens.

Event Centre

The event centre will be the University Club on Mansfield Road. Due to its central location it has no parking (you may be able to find an on-street space nearby but charges now apply) so please come on foot, by bicycle or by public transport (including Park & Ride) if possible.

Race Format

60 minute score (visit as many controls as you can and return within 60 minutes). Remember to bring a watch and a pen! Start times are between 7pm and 8pm, starting whenever you’re ready. See About Street-O for a more detailed description.

Terrain

Largely tarmac roads and paths with no significant hills. Some of the centre is pedestrianised and most other roads have a 20mph limit. Nevertheless the traffic is busy in places and you must take care crossing all roads.

Social

If you can, please stay after you have run to discuss routes, mistakes, the weather or anything else that takes your fancy. Food is available from the University Club bar but only until 8.30pm so you’ll need to run early if you want to eat. The bar remains open for drinks until 11pm.
