Race Calendar

Wadhurst Runners competes in a number of races during the year and each weekend will probably see the Wadhurst vest being worn with pride somewhere in the world!

In each race, points are awarded to members of Grand Prix clubs. The first Grand Prix Club member – in both male and female categories - will each score 500 points, the second man and woman will both score 499 points and so on, down to the 500th man and woman who will both score 1 point.

Sussex Grand Prix 2010

The Sussex Grand Prix is a series of races held within Sussex during the calendar year with prizes awarded to the overall winners in several age and gender categories. There are currently 18 races in the series - see below for the 2010 calendar.

In each race points are awarded to members of Grand Prix clubs - the first man and the first women will both score 500 points, the second man and women will both score 499 points and so on, down to the 500th man and woman who will both score 1 point

After each race the points that you score are recorded and kept as a cumulative total

To be eligible for prizes you must score in at least eight races (if you score in more than eight, then your best eight scores will count) two of which must be of 10 miles or more.

You must wear your club vest to score Grand prix points and you must only compete with the running number issued to you by the race organisers.
