NEWS


Equalisation of Cross-Country Distances – new survey for all members
Following on from the British Athletics survey which was circulated to club members last month to give their views on gender equality in cross country race distances, Kent AC is now looking to submit a club-wide response to the consultation.

The first part of the survey will cover general questions around the consultation currently being undertaken by EA/UKA and also allow the club to quantify the feeling within the club on the consultation and proposed changes.The second part directly copies the questions in the SEAA club survey.

We urge all members to complete the survey (it takes less than five minutes!) by next Sunday February 14th

CLUB 5 MILE HANDICAP CHALLENGE & EA NATIONAL RELAYS UPDATE


Note: Entries to the National Relay Competition extended until 21st February

Entries
Kent AC currently have 74 entries into the club handicap, you have until this coming Tuesday to get your entries in for this, please enter at Club_5_mile Handicap.
For the EA relays we have 47 entries, to enter please go to EA_Relays  – you can enter this until the 20th February.
 
Updates
The EA Relays have been extended until the 21st February due to the expected inclement weather. The club handicap will align with any subsequent changes made by the EA
You can enter one or both of the competitions.
You can use one performance for both competitions, you do not have to run twice (unless you want to!).
 
Club 5 Mile Handicap Challenge – reminder 

A reminder that to complement the EA relays, Kent AC is running a club 5 mile handicap competition with a number of competitions within a competition.  All you have to do is enter and then run 5 miles whilst adhering to the rules set out by England Athletics. Enter Here

Competition Summary:
Team Handicap Performance
Team Overall Performance
Individual Handicap
Individual Age Graded Performance

Notes:
EA Rules/Guidance will be used, summarised here. 
Open to 2nd claim runners.

If you ran the regional EA Relays your time rounded to the nearest 15 seconds will be used as your handicap.
If you didn’t run the regional EA Relays then your time submitted on entry will be considered, but the organisers will adjust accordingly for those who are looking for a soft handicap!
Once entered and allocated into a team, a DNS/DNF will give you a time of handicap + 2.5 minutes
A team captain will be appointed to help with data entry etc.
You don’t need to enter the EA relays, however it would be great to have as many as possible enter this to show just how strong a club Kent AC is.
