  3. Does anyone have/know an S2 boy in Aberdeen Grammar that would like to join the team on September 9th for a stab at getting to the World Schools in Estonia?!!!!! Long shot we know but should be a good day out again anyway.

If you can’t make any of these events or prefer to avoid others fo the time being, you can join the Mobile O revolution  and download the MapRun app and have a go at some local courses using your phone to time yourself and even navigate with.
