Runners will handicap and time themselves with the aim of finishing close together - YOU WILL NEED A RUNNING WATCH
The handicap races will begin at 7pm for runners of 45 min or more for 5K
Working down to runners setting off at 30 second intervals over a period of 30 mins
Ideally runners set off individually or a maximum of 3 runners if the 5k times are within 30 seconds
WHAT IS YOUR CURRENT 5K TIME? (take that time and subtract from 7.45pm… that is your start time)
After finishing your race please write your name and finish time on the record sheet in the clubhouse. Results will be organised and put on the noticeboard the following Tuesday.
