Club Colours

Club Colours is a scheme that recognises individual talent achieved through steady and consistent effort, focused training and a passion for representing the club at races and running events.

The scheme was introduced on 1 August 2018 (awards are not retrospective to races before that date) and is open to all members throughout the year.

It is based on achieving set times at races of various distances. The times are meant to be challenging but achievable with effort.
