The club is planning a competition for members. Exciting stuff!! We’re aiming to increase the level of participation in races and give members running goals throughout the year. The committee with the assistance of Declan K has drawn up a list of eight races.  Each runner’s top 5 races are taken into account. We will rank every male / female runner according to how they perform against each other. So, if you are placed first among the DFR runners, you get 1 point. If you are second, you get 2 points. The male and female runner with the lowest score over 5 nominated runs will be the winner. Once you completed a run, please forward your time to Aidan Rodgers. He will compile a list of times and award the points for each race.
