2018-2019 Club Championship
Each year we select a variety of different local events which will form our annual club championship. The club championship is open to all members of Pitreavie AAC Endurance. For 2018-2019 we are using the successful 3 mini-championships within the main championship:
> XC/Trail Championship
> Speed Championship (events <10k)
> Endurance Championship (events of 10k+)
The aim of our club championships is as follows:
> To promote a healthy level of competition within the club
> To provide a variety of events to cater for all ages/abilities over a range of distances and terrains
> To provide formal targets/objectives for members to work towards; to give your training some focus
> To help members gauge their progress in training
> To promote Pitreavie AAC through representation in local races
> To support local events and local running clubs
Participation in the club championship races is entirely optional. There is no pressure on members to participate, however we hope we have provided a wide enough selection of races to cater for all abilities and all preferences.
