Club Championship Races 2010

Once again this year Annie Ashmead is in charge of the Club's Championship and all results for Championship races should be sent to her at annieashmead@yahoo.com (and Martin Chaffey at martinchaffey@hotmail.co.uk for press releases please!)

Here are all the races eligible in the Club Championship 2010. As you'll see there are loads more to choose from as well as there often being more than one on the same day - so hopefully something for everyone!

For all members, both new and old, here are the details of the next Club Championship 2010. There are the equivalent of 46 races to choose from throughout the year, culminating with the Gilly Hilly or Ilminster 10km in early November which means that we get to award the prestigious Club Champion trophies at the Christmas meal

This year again the male and female Club Champions will be decided on a "best 8 results" principle (as the Somerset Series does); as well as the Points King and Points Queen for the man and woman at the end of the year with the most points.

With there being such an incredible choice of races it has been decided to really simplify the scoring system and just award points on the basis of 50 for first placed Club runner, 49 for second, 48 for third and so on (i.e. cutting out the extra 5 points that have previously been awarded for a category placing).

Also as per last year there will also be points awarded to anyone who does a marathon with points awarded based on time i.e. the fastest marathon runner will get the 50 points, the second fastest will get 49 points and so on, regardless of which marathon you did. Obviously you will need to tell me that you've done one and what your time was!

There will also be a 10 point deduction if the committee find out you've run a race not in club colours!
