2020 – DAC Endurance Club Championships

Tweet

The 2020 Club Championship has been re-structured in the hope of creating a more competitive event with bonus points being awarded for the first time.

15 races have been selected with the opener being the Ferriby 10 on 26^th January and the season finale again being the very popular Doncaster 10k in November.

Your best 8 scores will count towards your total score

Points are awarded on a sliding scale from 100 points for 1^st place down to 1pt for finishing in last place. Here are some examples.

If you came 250^th in a race of 500 finishers, you would score 50 pts.

If you came 100^th in a race of 1,000 finishers, you would score 90 pts

If you came 1,800^th in a race of 2,000 finishers, you would score 10 pts

Using the last example –

Take your race position and divide it by the number of finishers. 1,800/2,000 = 0.9

Deduct 1 from this figure. 0.9 – 1 = -0.1

Multiply this figure by -100.  -0.1 x -100 = 10pts

Volunteering Bonus Points

If you help out/volunteer/marshall at upto 4 of our 2 track events or 3 races you can earn 15 pts each time – so that’s up to 60 points just for helping your club out !

Milestone Bonus Points

Run 500 miles in the year to earn 2o pts, reach 1,000 miles and that’s another 20 pts, manage to get to 1,500 miles and that’s another 20 pts (proof would be needed by say Strava screen shot or similar)

There are a few triathloners out there, so for you there’s 40 pts if you complete one and for the Marathon runners there’s 50 pts for you (if you make it over the finish line)
