Boy, do we have a wealth of local (and localish) running choices.
I thought we could have some fun with this.
Here is a TAPtiming Race Series Challenge.
Everyone starts with 5000 points.
1) For each event you participate in, subtract 1000 points.
2) For a timed event, add your placement.
3) For untimed events, do not add anything. Just do the subtraction of 1000 points.
4) You can count up to 5 events towards your points. You can update your choices in order to pick your best 5 events.
5) Participants are ranked from lowest points to highest points.
What do you get?
Bragging rights,
plus cool prizes awarded through a few random draws and for leaders on the board. (male and female)
How does it work?
1) Participate in an event.
2) Have fun.
3) After the event:
– Email Rod@TAPtiming.ca the event you participated in and your placement (if timed).
– Your points will be updated and posted (https://taptiming.ca/ind…/taptiming-race-series-challenge/).
– Participants responsible for submitting their own results to be counted.
Example #1:
Entered Ranney Gorge and came in 15th.
5000-1000+15=4015
Example #2:
Entered Rainbow run, an untimed event.
5000-1000=4000
Example #3:
Entered Ranney Gorge and came in 15th.
Entered Rainbow run, an untimed event.
5000-1000+15=4015
4015-1000= 3015
Let the fun begin!
