Club Challenge Road 2024
The Club Challenge is for all members of NDRC. If you run any of the races below your time is automatically recorded. To win or qualify for a momento, 8 of these races must be completed. The races chosen are local and either free or cheap to enter to encourage local smaller race participation.
Each person is allocated a predicted race time based on performances at races in 2023. Discretion may be used for those who’ve had serious injury. For new members an online run race pace calculator time will be used from either your first club race or a parkrun to predict your times for future races. Scoring is simple. The further you are under your predicted time the more points you score. The basis being on improvement over the year.
A wildcard race is yours to choose and is counted as 1 of the 8 needed to complete the club challenge. If you want this race added please inform me (Shaun Johnson) via email the week before the race and a handicap time based on your start of year times will be issued using the race pace calculator. Points will be allocated again based on chip time unless of failure and screenshot of Strava or Garmin will be accepted. Once a wildcard is submitted no changes are permitted. You do not have to submit a wildcard race to complete.
