Awards Summary 2023 Winners

What Awards ran this year?

This year we ran the Awards schemes with the familiar pre-Covid names and targets for the WAVA based performance awards. What we hope we have achieved is to offer a set of awards which are accessible to a wide range of runners but still provide a challenge - giving you all something to focus on in your running. We felt this would send a positive message to our members and hopefully encourage you to go out and test yourself against your fellow athletes and your previous achievements. 

Please take the time to read carefully what is needed for each one (it may have changed!) and make sure you put some dates in your diary asap.

There are three different award schemes and you will be able to claim one award from each if you wish.

Details on how and when to claim will be included in the detailed description of each one, and here on the Awards Claim Form 2023

1. The Arrows Rocket Award - 2023 For the speedy ones! 1 mile, 5k, 5 miles. 75% WAVA - Virtual events now accepted!

2. Club Performance Standard Awards 2023 (WAVA based Standards Performance Awards from 'Club' (55%) to 'Platinum' (80%)) Based on increasing WAVA scores , distances and number of events.

3. Distance Challenges - 2023 Distance collectors Awards. Choose one from the The Fun 500 2023 or one of the longer 'Annual Totals' awards, a traditional 'Full House', or the demanding  'Ultra Level' .

If you are not sure that what you are doing or planning to do will qualify, please get in touch sooner rather than later.

We hate saying 'no' to people late in December!

The Arrows Rocket Award - 2022

Are you fast enough?

This new award was introduced in 2018 as a trial and is back again for 2022 with a few alterations due to the restrictions caused by the pandemic. Basically we've made virtual races admissible. Hopefully these changes will make it possible to get the qualifying times needed in what looks like it's going to be another strange year, whilst still making it a real challenge to hit the required WAVA scores.

You will need to run 3 different short distances but each one at a high WAVA to qualify.

If you are more into speed than long distances this could be for you...

What Awards are there this year?

This year we've reviewed and re-worked some of our awards, and gone back to the familiar pre-Covid names and targets for the WAVA based awards. What we hope we have achieved is to offer a set of awards which are accessible to a wide range of runners but still provide a challenge - giving you all something to focus on in your running. We felt this would send a positive message to our members and hopefully encourage you to go out and test yourself at a few events now that we've learned to do things in different ways and more events are back on again.

Please take the time to read carefully what is needed for each one (it may have changed!) and make sure you put some dates in your diary asap.

There are three different award schemes and you will be able to claim one award from each if you wish.
