2008 - 2009 WOMEN'S HANDICAPS






















The handicaps are a percentage of the fastest club runner's






potential time






Scores are calculated as follows:






All times are converted to decimals of minutes






(i.e. Seconds are divided by 60)






1) Divide your time by the winner's time






2) Subtract one and multiply by 100






3) Select the fastest women runner in the club






4) Rebase the fastest runner's score to 1






5) Rebase other runners scores by dividing into the fastest runners' score
