Grand Prix
 
 

Each year we hold a Grand Prix series of 10 races. Members are split into 'groups' according to ability.

Points are awarded in each race - 100pts for 1st 99 for 2nd etc. There is approximately 1 race per month.

Each race is held at a different location and organised by one of our committee members.

We normally have a buffet & a few drinks after each race.

A best female performance and best male performance prize is awarded for each race.

At the end of each year, the best 7 races for each runner count towards their final 'group' position.

In our annual presentation night, prizes are awarded to the top 3 runners in each group.

The dates and venues of the 2010 Grand Prix series are as follows :
