Dundee Roadrunners
Grand Prix
The club's Grand Prix consists of a number of races, chosen by the committee to provide a range of terrains and distances, and races which we know to be good, well-organised, fun events. For each race in which you run, you are awarded points, gaining more points for positioning better in the race results. The main aim of the Grand Prix is to help get lots of DRRs out to the same events together, to have fun and get a bit of friendly intra-club competition.
There are prizes for the top male and female finishers over the series and there will a memento for everyone who manages to complete the challenge. There are also prizes for finishing first in an age category, with your category being the one which you were in on the date of the first Grand Prix race of the year.
The 2025 Grand Prix consists of 10 races. Of these, you must either complete 6 races, or you can complete 5 and one marathon(**) of your choice. Good luck everyone!

*Members who aren't comfortable running the half marathon distance may run the 5k instead. The maximum points awarded for the 5k will be one less than the lowest score in the half marathon, such that all runners completing the half marathon distance will score more Grand Prix points than those running the 5k.
** Please note that for a marathon to count for the Grand Prix in any year, it must be run between the first and the last of the 10 Grand Prix races for that year**
