Time Trial Championships 2009

Our annual Time Trial Championships take place next Tuesday, 24th of November.

Qualification Criteria:
  • Current members who have run at least 10 Time Trials from 1 January until 9 November 2009.
  • Members who qualify for the trophy have an X next to their name on the spreadsheet below.
  • Everyone is welcome to run, but only those that qualify in terms of the above rules are eligible for a prize.

How does the Time Trial Championships work?

  • A 'handicap' system has been devised and perfected by Pieter over the years, which gives everyone a fair chance of winning.
  • The start is in reverse order, so the slower athletes start first, followed by the faster athletes.

  • Each athlete has an individual start time, based on his / her time trial times over the past year.
  • The clock starts counting at 17:30.
  • To work out your start time, add the time in the 'Start' column to 17:30 for example, my start time is indicated as 10:59, so I will start running at 17:40:59.


    Below is the list of start times, or you can download the spreadsheet here
