See you at Riga Rogaining in late summer, on 5 September

If we believe the saying "viss kas notiek, notiek uz labu", then we can also be happy that we will be able to train for Riga Spring rogaining for another 4 months longer and then throw ourselves into Riga "Atvasaras" rogaining with double power on September 5, coming from the forest with baskets full of not only checkpoints, but also berries and mushrooms.

We hope that the restrictions will have been completely lifted by that time and we will be able to enjoy the feeling of meeting again, drinking tea at the finish line, discussing what we experienced at the distance with friends and competitors and commemorating the winners together.

However, if the restrictions of the pandemic continue until September, we have also foreseen an alternative scenario - allowing participants to start all day and even for two days, with a real paper card, but using a smartphone application and rewarding themselves at the finish with our given medals and surprise prizes. We prepare for the worst, but hope for the best.

Since rescheduling the event can disrupt your spring plans, we want to give participants the option of choosing one of the following three options:

  • Participate in Riga Rogaining on September 5.
  • Transfer your membership to another member. Changes in the team composition can be made free of charge until August 29, by writing an e-mail to xrace@xrace.lv.
  • Transfer your membership to the 2021 spring rogaining. The choice must be made by June 14, 2020, by sending an e-mail to xrace@xrace.lv. After that, it will not be possible to transfer the membership.


At this time, we invite you to be responsible and isolate yourself in nature... for example, by participating in contactless e-learning with a smartphone, finding places not yet run in previous rogainings (currently happening Autumn 2018 e-rogaining in Lucavsala, in which until May 31 you can win medals, receive a bar from ISOSTAR and win Garmin Vivosmart 4 bracelet, but without medals you can still run Autumn 2019 Alphas and 2019 Olaine e-rogainings).

 

Take care of yourself, be responsible and spend more time in nature!
