#clickyourclock on your recent race results
Did you race this weekend? Many of the results are now in. Make sure you #clickyourclock on yours before 0830hrs on Thursday morning to be in with a chance of winning a Polar FT1 heart rate monitor in our weekly #clickyourclock competition.
With plenty of races to pick from last week there are lots of results that have clocks to be clicked! Some of the bigger races were:

Stirling Marathon - 4,297 finishers
Royal Berkshire 10K - 1,872 finishers
Bognor Prom 10K - 1,603 finishers*

*Provisional
Raymond Milne (handicap 11.9) is currently at the top of the leaderboard after his 20:40 at the Great Stirling 5k where he took a huge 2.5 off his handicap score. His time was actually one second slower than his previous 5k, at the beginning of May, but the algorithm assesses the difficulty of the course on the day and provides a Standard Scratch Score (SSS). It gave the Stirling 5k an SSS of 1.8 meaning that Raymond's 20:40 was a better run than his 20:39 at the Self Transcedence 5k, which had an SSS of 0.5.
There are currently more than 600 runners on the leaderboard who have improved their handicap score over the previous seven days. They will all be entered into the prize draw for the Polar FT1 Heart Rate monitor along with anyone else who clicks their clock and sees an improvement from their race this weekend.
Did you improve your score this week? Is so, be sure to #clickyourclock before 0830hrs on Thursday morning when the competition finishes for this week. Remember any one who improves their score has an equal chance of winning - good luck!
