Parent & Child Team Divisions:
Parent and child team division prizes will be awarded in the 5K, each of which will be age equalized by Compuscore using the USATF approved WAVA age grading tables. The WAVA grading means both the parent’s race time and the child’s time are adjusted to reflect internationally recognized and expected differences by age and gender. (Points reflect the runner’s pace as a percentage of the nominal world record 5K pace by age and gender.)
For example a 46 year mother who runs the 5K better than other 46 year old women can expect to score more points than an average 36 year old mother. Likewise an 11 year old daughter who runs the 5K better than other 11 year girls can score better than an average 21 year old female. Runners can be on only one team. Parent and child team members are also eligible for individual awards but not Open and Corporate Team awards.
Parent & Child Team Divisions: Father & Son Father & Daughter Mother & Son Mother & Daughter
Parent and child entries must be received together.
Open and Corporate Teams - WAVA Three Person Team Scoring
Note: Runners can be on only one team.
The Open 10K and Open and Corporate 5K teams will be WAVA age and gender equalized (Description of WAVA age grading). Three members of each team score. For example a team of three males in their 30’s could have their adjusted 5K points compared to the age and gender adjusted points of a team of two older males and an older female. The top three teams receive award in the Open 10K and Corporate 5K.
Runners can be on only one team.
Open and Corporate Team Rules: Teams must consist of as least three members, the top three score. There is no limit to the number of entrants on a team. A group may enter multiple teams. Scoring will be done automatically by Compuscore. Team members are also eligible for individual awards but not parent/child awards.
Corporate teams only: Teams members must be 18 or over and work at least 30 hours a week for the corporation they represent.
5 and 10K Open Teams: Teams may consist of any group, e.g. school, club, relatives, friends, and neighbors. Since open teams are flexible, a corporate team can enter the open category if they wish to compete for open team awards.
