Note: This permanent course is “virtual”. There are no physical control flags or even a start / finish sign. Your smart phone will beep when you visit the control circle. It requires you download the MapRunF app (iOS and Android). More information on MapRun is available here. Once you download the app, “Select Event” -> “ACT” -> “Permanent”, the course is called “MR Lotus Bay”. If you have any feedback or would like to help us make more of these virtual courses please visit our volunteer and feedback pages.
