RUNNER OF THE YEAR

Any Southern Oregon Runner member in good standing is eligible. A SOR member must finish at least (5) runs during the series to qualify for an award. SOR members 9 and under must only finish 3 such runs.

Awards will be given to the top 3 male and female in each age division.

HOW DO YOU SCORE?

Points can be scored through race participation, volunteering and placing in the top in your age group.


Participation:

For each race that a SOR member finishes, they will be awarded 5 points.


Placing:
For each eligible race that a SOR member places in, the following points will be awarded in each age group.

  • First = 15 points

  • Second = 12 points

  • Third = 10 points


Volunteers: Each volunteer will receive 15 points for volunteering in the first race they do so in and 7 points for every race thereafter.  This means that you can't run in that event.
