Club Standards

Club members are invited to submit their race performances where a certain standard has been achieved. These will then be highlighted on the website and a memento will be presented at the annual Awards Night.

The standards are goal times that club runners can aim to achieve. There are 3 standards, Gold, Silver, and Bronze which are also split into 5 year age groups from senior up to vet 75 for men & 70 for women. Runners are regarded as Seniors up to the age of 35.

If a club member achieves a race standard they can submit a claim to Club Standards & Performance & Development Officer Dean McLaughlin. There will also be a presentation of a memento at the annual Awards Night.

Claim for an Achieved Standard

If you meet a race standard then it is the club members responsibility to claim for it by submitting through the website HERE with a link to official race results for verification. All four distance standards can be claimed for BUT only one submission per standard each year unless you move up a grade within the year. Note that we actively encourage you run in NDRC club colours to be recognised as achieving a standard. We appreciate some events have charity vests. Submissions from downhill courses such as the Community 5k, Tissington, White Peak etc will not be accepted.
