club grand prix

The internal Club Grand Prix does include a number of Sussex Grand Prix events but also covers a variety of local runs, including parkruns and cross country.

There are 25 races to choose from and participants can do as many or as few races as they like and will be scored on their best. Please see the newsletter or check back later in the year for the last 5 races.

See the full Club Grand Prix rules below for more details.

How does it work?

The Club Grand Prix is open to anyone who is a fully paid up member of the Seaford Striders.

The method of scoring is as follows:

  • Men and women are scored separately.
  • The leading Strider in each case will be awarded 30 points, with 29 points for second, 28 for third and so on down to the 20th Strider to finish.
  • Any runner exceeding 10 races will only have their best ten results counted.
  • In the podium positions, the placing will be decided by the highest score in the head-to-head races.

 

Prior to this scoring,  the Club Grand Prix points were taken from the Sussex Grand Prix Races – for historical results click here

Why Join a Running Club?

There are many benefits to joining a running club here just a few reasons:

Meet like-minded people

Make lots of friends with people you already have running in common with and you can talk with people who understand your running interest/obsession! (blistered feet and all!)

Improve your running

You will always find someone who can run a little faster than you to be able to chase after. Organised sessions with interval training are designed to push you a little bit each week.

Support & Motivation

You will not only have your own personal bunch of cheerleaders but those days when you lack motivation become alot easier when there are others going out and getting it done and encouraging you. Just knowing other people will be there can make all the difference in lacing up your shoes and getting out that door!
