The standards were introduced in 1991 to provide all club members with a target and
the chance of an award.
To qualify for a club standard you are required to compete in a minimum of 4 separate distance races (marathon, half-marathon, 10m, 10k, 5m, 5k, 1 mile, and the handicap). You will be awarded the highest common standard you achieve across all 4 or more events.
Awards are presented at the annual summer ceremony to those who attain a standard higher than achieved in previous seasons. The season runs from 1 April – 31 March. If you move age brackets during a season, your age on 1 April applies to the whole season. All members are requested to provide official race times, whenever possible.
The standards are shown below. To sort by category, click the arrow at the top of the appropriate category table.
