HAVERHILL RUNNING CLUB GRAND PRIX 2012
This year's format will be altered - hopefully, to attract more of our newer runners and give everybody an equal chance of scoring points.
This year's Grand Prix will take place between February and November. Each month there will be a choice of races to enter of varying distances.
RACES
Your top 6 races plus bonuses (see below) will contribute to an individual's final score. You cannot run under someone else's name or number. You must wear your Club vest or Club T-Shirt. To be eligible you must be a paid up member of the club.
SCORING
Points will be scored for each event entered in the Grand Prix series although you cannot have more than 2 ParkRuns in your final score.
This year we are scoring the Grand Prix using the WAVA rating scale. Your result for a race will be your scoring points and you will always be marked up to the next whole number e.g. If you finish with a WAVA rating of 62.34 you will score 63 points.
BONUSES
Appearances for the club at meets this year will be rewarded with Grand Prix points and as follows:
The 5 Kevin Henry 5k races will each score 20 points for each race attended and this will be added to your Grand Prix score.
Please watch out for the 6 Suffolk Grand Prix series races on our Grand Prix as these will score you an extra 20 points for each attendance.
If there are any questions or observations please don't hesitate in contacting me in person or via Facebook.
Good luck everyone!!!
