Rules

Scoring for this year’s competition will work differently to last year.

Points will be based on finishing position versus club mates in each race, with 10 points for 1st place, 9 points for 2nd – down to 1 point for 10th place and beyond.

There will be three competitions within the series with prizes up for grabs for the top 3 in each of the following:

Men’s Open Competition – minimum 5 of 12 races to qualify, best 6 scores used
Ladies Open Competition – minimum 5 of 12 races to qualify, best 6 scores used
Age-Graded Competition – ranked by Age Grade % for non-trail events, minimum 5 of 10 races to qualify, best 5 scores used

We will check the race results afterwards to see which Striders have run, so you will automatically be entered into the series standings on our website. And if you run at least 5 of the races you will qualify with a final ranking in the competition.

Another change for 2025 is the addition of the above listed ‘Participation Races’. These races will not count towards the minimum 5 qualifying races but will give you a chance to boost your score significantly!

At the end of the year, prizes will be awarded at the Christmas party.
