The ARR Member Race Series is a designated set of races in Albuquerque or nearby, for members of ARR to engage with each other in friendly competition. The idea is to encourage participation in different kinds of races. There are six categories: 4 distances for road races plus short and long trail events.
Participants in the series score points according to their finish time compared with the median finisher — the runner whose time divides the field into two equal halves. The median finisher equals 100 points and if you are quicker, you’ll score more than 100, slower times score less. The sum of your best score in each of the categories counts in the year-end total. Competition is divided by gender and into 10-year age-groups, with your age on July 1, 2022, deciding which age-group you fall into. Two strategies help to get a big overall score -- either be fast in a few events or take part in a lot of different categories of races. |
YOU MUST REGISTER to participate! Any ARR member interested in participating is eligible without any further entry fee, but participants must register their interest with Series Coordinator Ian Maddieson, and provide name, date of birth, and gender. You can sign up for the series at any time, and any qualifying race you have already done will be scored retroactively. NOT AN ARR MEMBER? Find out how to join here! |
