Indiana Orienteering Introduction
Pacing help us to judge how much distance we have covered
There are two ways to find out your pacing
- Single step pacing (counting every stride)
- Double step pacing (counting every other stride)
Double pacing is normally preferred
Always on the Same foot (Either left or right)
Paces vary according to terrain
On a fairly level ground, pace determines distance as follows:
* 65 – 70 paces per 100m (male)
* 80 – 90 paces per 100m (female)
Should we get lost or things do not follow as plan, at least we will roughly know the distance we had travelled
Activity:
- Pacing on fairly level ground : ______ paces per 100m
- Pacing on up-slope: _______ paces per 100m
- Pacing downslope: _______ paces per 100m
* Record down and this will be your guide
