Had a bit of a brainwave recently so this year the club will be holding a run league over the winter months.

Read on for full details.....

The format

Each member who signs up below will run in 4 races out of the list below. They can pick any four races but they need to run in our own John Davis 10km run at the end of January. [That is 3 races + john davis = 4 races total] This took a break last year but will hopefully take place in 2008. The only exception is club members who are oranganising the John Davis 10km and volunteers can subsitue a different race for this one, so they arent excluded. You can run in more that four races but only use four for the league.

Members will need to email their races times in. This will be explained later on when it is set up. Some of these races dont have timing chips so its important you wear a stopwatch and time yourself. Honesty required.This will be read against the organisers time they give you which are usually pretty accurate. The exact scoring system will be outlined later as the races vary in distance. - This is going to be kept simple with mininum work for the 1 -2 voluteers who will keep track. Most likely a spreadsheet simliar to Gavs one he did for the swim challeges early on this year. Depending on numbers who sign up, they will be mostly likely be two groups - level one and level two each with prizes for male and female.

The races are all located in dublin offering plently of choice. I will add more races if they come out and are suitable
