HANDICAP - OUTSIDE THE YMCA First run on the summer YMCA course for 2008

The Handicap is held on the last Thursday of each month. Competitors go off in reverse order of speed with the faster runners chasing the slower ones. Good handicapping means exciting finishes. The competition runs from April one year to March the next and runners gain points according to their position ( first 30 points, second 29 points, third 28 points etc. A season best scores extra 2 points. Competitors running for the first time score 1 point.).  Best 9 scores will win the Handicap Plate which is awarded at the Annual Awards Ceremony.  The first winner of the Handicap Plate was Rob Davis who received his award in June 2003. The current holder is 2006 -2007 winner Graham Webster. The Points Table (2004-2005, 2005-2006 2006-2007) shows the current leaders. The Table of PBs (2004-2005, 2005-2006 2006-2007) shows everyone's best time for the course. Christmas and Midsummer Handicaps often have prizes or socials following.  Thanks to Roy Stevens for the Plate and to race organizer and handicapper Bill Lock and to all who have helped and marshalled at these races. Since June 2006 food made by the YMCA has been available for those wishing to stay and socialise after the race at a cost of £2:50.

Beginning to catch on: this season's average attendance 21.
