Club Awards

Romsey Road Runners proudly hosts an annual Awards Evening to celebrate the achievements of its members over the year, both in their running and their contributions to the club, and to inspire the next 12 months worth of personal bests! Find out more about the awards below, including the award that’s voted for our members:

RR10 Award

Scoring for the individual men’s and women’s awards is based on the best 6 out of 9 race results each season (NB. individuals cannot score points in the race organised by their club).

CC6 Award

Scoring for the individual men’s and women’s awards is based on the best 4 out of 7 race results each CC6 season (nb. individuals cannot score points in the race organised by their club).

Pentathlon

Scoring for this is based on a points system for men’s and women’s performances in 5 of the 6 race distances that are officially recognised and permitted; 5km, 5 miles, 10km, 10 miles, half marathon and marathon within the UK. The 5km club handicap time trial race is included. Members are allocated points for their best time within RRR over each distance (40 points for fastest, then 37, 34, 32, 30, 29 and then reducing by 1 point for each position). The Pentathlon Award can only be awarded to a first claim member.

Pentathlon Veterans Trophy

This is an extension of the Pentathlon competition but is a single award for men and women that are aged 50 or over on 1st October in the year of the competition. An extract from the results from the main pentathlon of all eligible members are copied to separate tables, one for men and one for women.

Members are allocated points for their best time over each distance in the same way as the main pentathlon award (40 points for fastest, then 37, 34, 32, 30, 29 and then reducing by 1 point for each position). The man or woman with the greatest number of points is awarded the trophy. In the event of a tie for first place the person who is the oldest is awarded the trophy. The Pentathlon Award can only be awarded to a first claim member.

NB. The Pentathlon Award can only be awarded to a first claim member. Members belonging to other clubs are eligible for other club awards for events run as members of Romsey Road Runners.
