Winter Series 1 – Stop Cafe

Embark on an adventure through Shrewsbury with the MapRun Challenge on November 1, 2026. Whether you run solo or team up with friends, this virtual orienteering experience offers two options: complete as many checkpoints as possible in either a brisk 45 minutes or a more leisurely 90-minute session. Start anytime between 10am and 11am at the Julian Friars area near Stop Cafe, SY1 1UD, using your smartphone or smartwatch with the MapRun app to punch virtual controls along the way.
The event concludes at noon and there's no better place for a post-race celebration than the nearby cafes in town. Parking is available close by, making it easy to enjoy this unique exploration of Shrewsbury’s streets and landmarks. Bring your well-behaved dog on a short leash to join you as you navigate through historic sites and vibrant neighborhoods.
Perfect for all ages and skill levels, no prior experience is necessary—just an eagerness to explore and have fun in one of England's most charming towns.
