2015 Summer Championsips

Dear Member,

The following races have been chosen for the 2015 summer Road Running Championship. Unfortunately Troon 10k filled up in record time, (less than 48 hrs!!), but we’ve been told that there is a waiting list for anyone who still wants to enter & that they usually have places available closer to the event, as well as on the day. We have added 2 extra races because of this, so it will be 7 races out of 12 (inc. best marathon time up mid Nov) to count. We are going back to the old system, where each runner must do at least one race from each catagory of short, medium & long distances, for the 7 to count. 15 point for 1st, 14 for 2nd & so on down to 1 point, which everyone beyond this will get.

All atheletes MUST be fully paid up members, enter as Kilmarnock Harrier & AC, & wear a club vest.

Wed 6th May     –     Troon 10k (M)

Wed 27th May   –     Land O’ Burns 10k (M) (West 10k)

Sat 20th June     –     Garscube Foodbank 5mile (S)

Sun 5th July       –     Arran Half Marathon (L) (Ayrshire Half Marathon)

Mon 20th July    –     Irvine 5 miles (S)

Wed 29th July    –     Kilmaurs 5k (S)

Wed 5th Aug     –      Dundonald 10k (M)

Wed 19th Aug   –      Marymass 10k (M)

Sun 6th Sept      –      North Ayrshire 10k (M) (Ayrshire 10k)

Sun 13th Sept    –      Cumbrae 10.2 miles (L)

Sun 20 Sept       –      Dumfries Half Marathon (L) (West Half Marathon)

                   Best Marathon (L) time  – up to mid Nov

Also a reminder of the club standards, all of the races above & all other races an senior member compete’s in throughout the year counts towards this, all you need is 3 qualifying times from different distances. It’s up to each individual to check their times against the chart which can be found here, for Bronze, Silver, Gold & Gold Plus standards & let the club captains or Scott Martin know.

Good luck to everyone, hope to see you all fit & racing throughout 2015!!

Cammy & Paula
