ERR XC Handicap Competition 2021/22 Scores

Author: erradmin 10th December 2021

Here are the final scores after round 4.

I would just like to add a case for the defence, in that any handicap competition depends not only on your performances this year, but how you were doing when the handicaps were set, and 2 years ago I was rubbish. Anyway, I’m highly unlikely to win it again.

Explanatory Blurb:

Points are awarded to show the person who has improved the most in percentage terms against their ‘base’ pace, so 50 are awarded to the most improved, then down from there to the least improved person on the day.

Base pace is calculated via a weighted average of a runner’s pace achieved in the 2019/20 season, with the weights reflecting the relative difficulty of the courses involved. If you didn’t run in 2019/20 then an arbitrary base figure is assigned, but the usual disclaimer applies in that you are unlikely to win in these circumstances, as it’s likely to mean you were given a false base figure. As ever, think of it as setting a mark for next year.
