Wicked Rogaines Winter Series 2026
Wicked Rogaines Winter Series runs across six weekly events in June and August 2026 with a new course released each Wednesday evening. Courses are then available as part of a Virtual Series from Thursday afternoon and remain open for a week; printable maps can be downloaded and A3 maps ordered in advance for each event.
Events are held at locations around Christchurch including Scarborough (Clock Tower, Sumner), Hansen Park Opawa, McCormacks Bay Reserve, South Brighton Domain, Holliss Reserve Westmorland and Ferrymead Park. Two participation modes are offered: a Wednesday evening format with physical electronic controls, official Wicked Rogaines scoring and Wicked League points, and a Virtual event using the MapRun app with no physical controls and unofficial results.
Standard rogaining formats include 2-hour events, a 1-hour option and the Wicked Kids Fun Event. Teams typically comprise two to five members; shorter events may allow solo competitors. Children under 12 are free when accompanied by a paying adult and the Kids Fun Event is aimed at very young children, including under 7s. Teams must stay within 50 metres of each other and carry compulsory safety gear: polypro top, warm hat, gloves, rain jacket, whistle and a torch or headlamp with battery; teams must carry at least one mobile phone and one compass. Entry categories and refund terms are published; refunds decrease as event date approaches. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
