ABOUT
For those wanting some competition, we run a yearly 'Grand Prix' where runners of similar ability are allocated to groups that compete against each other in up to 9 local races. Points are awarded after each race for the individuals finishing position within their group. Each individuals best 5 points score from the year will determine their final position. The individual with the highest points total in each division at the end of the season will be deemed the winner and positioned in 1st place. The individual with the next highest score into 2nd place and the next highest score into 3rd place and so on.
This competition has the effect of giving people a focus to aim their efforts towards, and is keenly contested across all groups.
