Enter Reward Running today and get all of October's improvements
How are you doing on the runbritain handicap rankings? A quick look at our facebook page tells us that last weekend was a great weekend for lowering the scores.
Well done to:
John Dodds (handicap 8.7) who lowered his score from 9.3 at the Chester Marathon
Ken Summerfield (handicap 27.2) who lowered his score from 29.7 at the Southend 10k
Ian Thompson (handicap 5.0) who, running with a cold, achieved a lower score than last year at the Basingstoke Half Marathon when his score was 6.5
Steve Hill (handicap 16.2) who lowered his score from 17.2 at the Milton Keynes parkrun
Pete Waumsley (handicap 0.0) who lowered his score from 0.2 at the Lloyds Bank Cardiff Half Marathon
No matter what time in the month you enter the Reward Running competition your handicap improvements will count for that month so, to be in with a chance of winning an adidas miCoach or Sennheiser headphones, make sure you sign up before the end of the month especially if your score is going in the right direction!
At the end of each month, the most improved runner in each category is rewarded with an adidas miCoach or Sennheiser headphones along with other improvers plus two spot prizes (we have 12 prizes in all). The categories are:
