Originally used as a training exercise for military personnel, the sport of orienteering can be done a number of ways but most traditionally is run on foot and always requiring the navigation of a previously un-disclosed course by map and compass. Longer races are run over night and in relays.
The 50 Sports team find their way to the origin of the sport, Sweden, for the famous Tiomila Relay Race to see their mentor world champion Edgars Bertuks in action and then learn all they can from the young master about the sport of Orienteering themselves. Not just a great way to get from A to B, Orienteering is another super way to get off the couch.
