PRS Running Club - Club Championships

The first annual PRS Running Club Championships will be held at the JB 5K on December 13, 2014. 

The Karapo Division Championship will start at 10:00 am with the Silver Fern Division Championships preceding it at 9:30 am.  The Karapo Division is only for those male members who have not run under 18:00 in a 5K and those female members who have not run under 20:00 in a 5K and will feature a handicap timing system to even the playing field.  The Silver Fern Division is for our elite runners – men who run under 18:00 in one of the qualifying races and women who run under 20:00 in one of the qualifying races. 

Qualifying Times & Handicaps

After the completion of the Deerwood Firecracker 5km in July a list of runners who have met the three race minimums will be posted along with their Handicap times.    The qualifying list will be updated once a month through the end of November for those who have qualified.   Those not meeting the three race minimum will not be listed until they reach the three race minimum.
