Happy New Year, Lone Star runners! As we approach our upcoming races for the new year, we wanted to make you aware of an exciting competition that all current Lone Star Runner Club members can participate in- Gran Prix! If you have been around as long as many of us have, you may remember Gran Prix- the concept is the same! For every club race you participate in or volunteer for, you will earn points! Your points accumulate for all the club races for the year, and the Top Female, Top Male, Top Masters Female, and Top Masters Male with the most points for the year will be rewarded prizes! Masters is 50 and above. The point scale has changed since the past- here is how you can earn points at each race:
Race Director: 20 points
Overall Male, Female, Masters Male, and Masters Female: 15 points
Volunteer: 10 points
Age Group Winners: 10 points
2nd Place in Age Group: 9 points
3rd Place in Age Group: 8 points
4th Place in Age Group: 7 points
5th Place in Age Group: 6 points
6th Place in Age Group: 5 points
Participation in or Registration in Race: 3 points
There is no need to sign up for Gran Prix- if you are a current member your points will automatically be rewarded! If you have any friends who are not current Lone Star Runner Club members and you know they love a good competition, encourage them to sign up or renew their membership before the first club race! If you have any questions about Gran Prix, feel free to email Katie Rodriguez at katie.mcomber7@gmail.com.
