2022 Combined Championship
After a two-year hiatus in club championships featuring ‘real’ races due to the pandemic, a single ‘mixed’ club championship has been devised for 2022.
The 2022 championship features a mixture of 'local' road, fell & trail races over different distances.
The competition features 13 events; 7 ‘short’, 2 ‘medium’ and 4 ‘long’ with best scores from up to 6 races to count. There is no minimum number of races and no requirement to do races from each distance category.
This year we are trialling a performance-based scoring system based on your finishing time relative to the first man & lady. Basically, the closer your time is to the winner’s time the more points you get. Scores for 'medium' & 'long' races will be multiplied by a factor of 1.1 and 1.2 respectively, as an inducement to take part in longer distances.
​
A more detailed explanation of the scoring can be found here
​
In addition to the overall men’s and ladies championship winners, there will also be vets (over 40) and supervets (over 50) categories for both men and women.
