Club Championships - discussion
Posted: 08 Oct 2014 23:07[drumroll]
Ladies & Gentlemen, Girls & Boys - as per my earlier communication, I have the pleasure to annouce…
The 2015 maybe-annual BCTTT Club Championship Challenge
Rules of the game:
1. To qualify, all you need to do is:
- Participate in at least three multisport events in the 2015 season; at least one of them must be an open water triathlon
- Submit your race results, and the winner’s results for your age group (male or female), in a post below. (this needs to include race name, date and your time & fastest time in your age group)
- Wait for me to find time to do the rest.
2. Your score for each event will be estimated as a percentage of the age group winning time to your time, rounded up to the nearest decimal. If your race doesn't run age-group splits, the winning time for your gender can be submitted as reference time.
(example: in my first ever triathlon I did 1:28:52 and the winning male time was 1:04:58 - my score for the event would be 1:04:58 / 1:28:52 = 73.1%)
3. Your overall season score will be the sum of your *three* highest individual event scores.
4. By *multisport* event we understand a triathlon, duathlon, aquathlon, or aquacycle. *ANY* event of this type can count - there is no predetermined “club champs” events list. But, their result needs to be submitted below.
5. To keep things fair and make this interesting throughout the year, you need to submit your results within a week from the date of your race.
6. BONUS POINTS: To promote club members racing alongside one another, an extra 5 points will be given for participation in each event with at least three BCTTT members in it. Maximum amount of bonus points awarded is 15.
Note: These don’t have to be your highest scoring races, but results for these need to be submitted by 3+ BCTTT members.
7. Season starts on 1 Jan and ends on 31 Dec 2015
8. Kevy doesn’t need to swim (see how good I am?), but DOES need to do at least three duathlons (i.e. qualifying “multisport events”) if he wants to play. Other exceptions possible at SGM’s discretion (hoping there will be none).
9. You *don’t* have to be a paid-up club member to take part (i.e. all forum colours welcome).
10. Results sheet can be viewed at any time here: http://goo.gl/DDwSgZ (empty file for now, obviously). I will *do my best* to update as results flow in - at least once a month.
Comments? (note - I’ll delete all comments at the end of the year to make space for event result submissions)
