THE RULES

Anyone can take part in the Grand Prix Series; members of clubs affiliated to Athletics Norfolk, members of clubs not affiliated to Athletics Norfolk, unattached runners - all are welcome.

You don't even need to live in Norfolk - just enter the Grand Prix races in the normal way and then look out for your name in the Series standings ... 

All ages are taken as at December 31, 2023 with masters in five-year age groups from 40 to 70+. 

At every Grand Prix race the winner in each age group scores 100 points, second place scores 99 points and so on. 

If you don't manage to complete the minimum of nine races you will still count in the final standings but clearly, it's a good idea to do as many as possible. 

We also have categories for juniors (up to and including age 14) and intermediate (aged 15 to 17 inclusive).

Juniors must run both 5K races with their aggregate score to count. 

Intermediate runners may enter any of the nine races of a distance 5k, 5 mile or 10k, with the best six races to count. 

At the end of each season the Series awards will be presented at the Night of Celebrations. 

Good luck!
