Czech Association of Rogaining and Mountain Orienteering - How it began The formation of the Ceska Asociace Rogainingu (Czech Rogaining Association) was driven by two people who had enjoyed rogaining in Canada at the Most Awesome Rogaine in 1990. With some friends, they formed the Ceska Asociace Rogainingu as a means of running rogaining and mountain orienteering events and they used their local contacts to provide what resources they needed. There were some problems initially with a negative response by the Czech Orienteering Federation but the CAR soon had over 800 members. Membership in the IRF was the first direct international contact and the presence of world rogaining champion Iiro Kakko at the 1st Czech Rogaining Championship in 1998 was very important in the development of Czech Rogaining.
