Club Champion Award

The club champion award is designed to reward dedication and steady improvement throughout the year. Because of the handicapping system, the club champion is not necessarily the fastest runner in the club, or the one who runs the most kilometres in a week, or even the one that gets the most ribbons throughout the year, it normally goes to the person who trains steadily, attends the majority of club runs and achieves consistent top twenty placings. Here's how it works:

Juniors

50 minus your position
i.e. 4th place: 50-4 = 46 pnts
30 minus your position
30 minus your position
 
Your first run for the season is not counted in the aggregates. Only the best seven of the remaining races are counted. So if you have a shocker or two, or can't make it to every race, you have a chance to redeem yourself. Only runners that have competed more than once will appear on the leader board.

Speed Champion Award

The Speed Champion aggregate recognises the fastest runners at the club over the year. Although the Club's purpose is not necessarily to train runners to an elite level, it's good to see who is running fast regardless of the handicapper's time penalties. Here's how the aggregate system works:

Unlike the Club Champion aggregates, the first run for the season is counted in the aggregates for Speed Champion. The Speed Aggregate is based on points and it's your best seven races as far as points that count, not necessarily your seven fastest times. Only the top ten runners will appear on the leader board and the top five for the weekly results.
