Borders Handicap 2009-2010
John Driscoll explains the Borders Road Running League Handicap
A brief explanation for new runners.
I am using the Borders League races to evaluate an Endurance Running Handicap system invented a few years ago by George Bunner. Essentially the system gives you a handicap number (like Golf) which is dependent on recent performances. The number translates into a time allowance, which obviously changes with the distance of the event.
To qualify for a handicap you need to run 3 Borders league races. Provided these are within 2 seasons, you will be included in the handicap results for future Borders League races. (Note for those also included in the Cheshire AA RR GP events – I do not use any performances collected for that).
Two changes from last year :
If you have any questions please contact the undersigned at jld@sunnyfield.co.uk, rather than blresults.
Individual Race results can be found here.
Consistently good form from Sallie Holt means she is the highest Wallasey A.C. runner in the Borders League Handicap, lying in 8th place overall with 2 races to go.
