Winter Handicaps
Each Winter we run a Handicap series for members on a Monday club night. The races are run on a handicap system with the slowest runners going off first working through to the fastest runners at 20 secs intervals. The idea being all the runners finish at the same time. The Races are run on a 2 lap course of approximately 2.2 miles. There are 4 races ending with a final race with the first runner across the line the winner and the Winter Handicap champion.
