Scoring for 2026

• For the 2 parkruns (Fountains 09/05 & Harrogate 06/06), maximum points (20pts) will be awarded for all runners & volunteers, to provide encouragement to turn out at the events that promote our 10K Race.

• For the 4 HDSRL Evening League races – 30 points for 1st Harrier, 10 for last Harrier. Points are then proportioned between these, so for example the mid placed Harrier finisher will get 20 points.

• For the remainder of races, same as 2025, All Harrogate Harriers (Open & Women) are placed in order of their time. 1st place is awarded 20 points, 2nd 19pts, 3rd 18pts, etc,  down to 16th 5pts, then all remainder will be awarded 5 points

• Only your top qualifying races will count towards the Club Championship (i.e. only your best 10 - 5 short, 3 long and 2 evening league scores will count)
