Once again, CVRA will sponsor the Race Circuit. We hope this will get you to hit the bricks training, enjoy seeing most of east central Iowa during 2008, check the standings to see where you stack up against your bitter rival/best friend and most of all, enhance the fun of running...just a little.
Point System:
We are going to have a 34 Race Schedule that for each event you run/walk or volunteer, you will earn points. These points will be kept from our first event, the Freezefest, to the last event, the Turkey Trot.
Rules and Eligibility requirements:
1. The circuit is free to join. You must be a current CVRA club member. If your membership has expired or you want to join, click here for a Membership Form.
2. All runners will be assigned to one of the following age groups:
Male/Female in under 29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69,
70 and over.
3. After each event you partake in, you will need to submit your Race Information for that event. You will will receive a confirmation when your info has been submitted correctly. Yes, most of this will be on the honor system...
4. Your personal info from the submitted "race record" will automatically be entered to a Standings page. There you will find yourself placed in the correct age group with your points earned. You will also be able to view who is ahead and behind you. The results will be updated on a real time basis!
5. Awards/prizes will be based on the top 3 males/females in each age group. To be eligible for an award you must accumulate at least 100 points during the year. An overall male and female winner will also be awarded. Overall winners are not eligible for age group awards. The prizes have not been determined but we will try and make them meaningful.
