Member Race Series

Message from Ian Maddieson, Coordinator - November 9, 2020


This is just to confirm the obvious. The ARR Race series is canceled for 2020. There are just too few races that have taken place to make a meaningful 'series' and virtual events cannot be compared since the routes and conditions are not shared by the participants.
Maybe next year?

​A points competition for members of ABQ Road Runners Club​

Race Series Coordinator: 
​ Ian Maddieson 
​ 

​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.

One idea behind the series is to tempt you to try a race in a category you might not have thought of trying!
​

​NOT AN ARR MEMBER?   Find out how to join here!
​Points are accumulated in a series of designated races in or not far from Albuquerque.​
  • The designated races include the following six categories:  5K, 10K, half-marathon, and marathon on road courses, plus a “short” trail run, and a 50K or 50 mile ultra.
  • For each category of race there are several options so that competitors may avoid problems for entry, such as field size limitations, schedule conflicts, etc.
  • Series entrants score points based on comparing their finish time to the median time for all finishers. The median finish time is the time that exactly half the finishers are faster than and half slower; if there is an even number of finishers it will be midway between the time of the finisher at the end of the first half and the next finisher. A series participant's score in a given race is the median time in seconds divided by their time, with the result multiplied by 100. This equates to the median time as a percentage of your time. Faster than the median means you score more than 100 points, slower will be less.
  • Only the best score in each category counts in the final point total at the end of the year.
  • Final point score is the sum of your highest four scores in any of the six categories
  • The competition extends over the calendar year.
  •  There are female and male 10-year age brackets. Members moving up an age group during the year will belong to the higher age group if their birthday falls before July 1.​​​​​​
