Below there is two lists. List one shows those that have already run six races whilst list two shows those that have run 5 races and therefore need to complete the mob match to complete the Challenge. Targets for the Mob Match are now completed. All the best stats fans…..

| The challenge will be based around 12 races - 10 announced and 2, as yet, undisclosed races. The majority of the runs are at shorter distances, a mix of road races (RR) and multi - terrain (MT) and are those organised closest to our St Austell base. The STATO challenge season will fill the middle of the year from early April to early October. The announced races are listed, while the undisclosed races could be made up with club time trials and/or other adhoc events - but don't worry there will be plenty of notice of all upcoming STATO Challenge | Qualifying Races. 5th Apr Trevornick 10m MT (GP Race) (Plus 2 races TBA) possibly The Cornish Marathon as one!!!

The Ethos The whole ethos behind the STATO Challenge is that it is based around a beat yourself target system and therefore could be won by anyone regardless of their basic running speed. Those rewarded will be those that demonstrate improvement and progression from race to race. Remember too that the challenge is about participation and fun and gives an additional or alternative option to the Grand Prix and keeps interest and fun competition within the Club. Like the Grand Prix format you need to run a minimum of 6 races to be in with a chance of grabbing some prizes with the 6 best results being counted with poorer results removed. Of course you can run more than 6 races and again like the Grand Prix there will be participation prizes for those that complete their 6 races and really special prizes for those that manage all 12. Full prize details will appear once the STARC committee tell STATO what the prize fund budget will be! Targets for races will be posted well in advance and "league tables" will be regularly updated. Look out for the new dedicated STATO area of the website in the new year which will keep you up to date on the Challenge as well as all manner of other interesting, and sometimes meaningless, running stats. Just one last word - the system for setting individual targets has been determined through our trials during 2008. It is a fair and rigorous calculation based on your previous race results. That means that you will need to run at least one race between January and your first STATO Challenge race to be able to receive a target time. STATO is always happy to bore you to death with more detail on how the targets are derived and even more delighted to share the background spreadsheets just so you know it is all fair and above board. If you really don't want to just waste 4 hours of your life though, focus on betting your targets and wait for the prizes to roll in. |
