Devizes Challenger 5k Series 2024

01st July - 31st December 2024

I am pleased to bring you the first edition of the Devizes 5k Challenger Series! Each month competitors complete the chosen route as many times as they like, from whichever point on the route they chose. 

You can join in up to three months after the start of the event - your average results will be taken alongside variance between routes to back fill missed entries.

There will be three distinct leaderboards (across male/female):

• Outright finish time
• Age graded finish time/percentage
• Pace consistency (per km)

There are also some hidden achievements which will only be revealed at the end of season celebration & prize giving

• Date: Each course is "open" for the duration of the month, starting on the first of each month
• Starting Time: Whatever suits you.
• Entries: Entry Fees: £10
• Venue: Each route will be made available in advance, via email and Facebook
• Distance/ Terrain: 5k/various
• Submitting your run: You can either follow 'James Allen' on strava and tag me in the comments or you can send a link to your strava/ garmin (the run must be made public and email it to jamesallen1705@gmail.com
• Results: Will be emailed to all participants around one week after closing

Terms And Conditions

• The entrant must agree to the following terms and conditions.
• Runs must take place on the set route and cover all of the set route. 
• Races must be run between 00:00am on the 1st of each month and 11:59pm on the last day of the month. Multiple attempts are permitted. The best result for each leaderboard will be taken.
• Each individual runner must upload their Strava/Garmin performance and either tag James Allen or email us your result - fallure to do this will mean your result will not be recorded. 
• Results will be based on “time elapsed” rather than “moving time” – try not to stop your watch during your run!
• Runs that deviate from the route will be discounted
• If for whatever reason you are unable to complete one of the events your average results will be taken alongside variance between routes to back fill missed entries.
