This is an age group based competition run in house for our members only.
So you compete against fellow club members in your category ie Male age 35-39...
The idea is an incentive to train towards your goals and enjoy a great competitive spirit amongst club members.
The races on the calendar will suit all abilities from GoTri to Ironman so generally everyone competes against athletes at their level.
The calendar will also include some popular local running races ie Stafford Half marathon...
To qualify your must enter your races under your own name and enter Chasewater Triathlon Club as your club name.
How does it work ? Say we have 25 races on the calendar, you have to compete in a minimum number of races, say 5 (yet to be decided), you compete in your age and gender category ie Female 35 -39, we take your position within your age category for each particular race and award points in descending order to each finisher, so the club member in each category at the end of the year with the most points wins the award 🥇
Yes, there will be prizes and recognition (and bragging rights) 😀
Prizes will also be awarded for other reasons over the year such as Best Newcomer and the Most appearances at races ( ie the trophy hunter ! )
The onus is on you personally to notify the committee of your results as soon as possible to be in the running for a trophy.
