A variation of regularity is "Jogularity", invented by John Brown for the first Le Jog, when only standard speedometer tripmeters were permitted in the cars. Competitors are provided with a printed table, listing landmarks along the route, with the exact mileage at the landmark and the scheduled time of arrival at the landmark based on the set average speed. Landmarks given are not only junctions, but also include road signs, houses, gates, cattle grids or bridges etc. Intermediate time controls are always placed exactly at a listed landmark. Even if you're proficient at working with speed tables, it's advisable to put them away and just work with the printed Jogularity schedule. If you try to monitor your progress using both methods simultaneously, you're bound to get completely confused.
