RR10 LEAGUE

The RR10 league is a series of races organised by running clubs in south-west Hampshire for their members. The races are held on Wednesday evenings during the spring and summer. Entry is free. All of the races are 4-5 miles off-road. The standard of runners varies from 5 to 12 minute milers so, however fast you are, there will always be someone to run with. If you aren't a member of one of the organising clubs, go to one of their websites (links below) and join up so that you can be part of the fun!

IMPORTANT: MAJOR CHANGE TO RESULTS COLLECTION PROCESS FOR 2023

A major change to the way runners record their finish position has been implemented for this season. The new process is identical to that used by parkrun. Runners will be given a finish position token after they cross the line and must then go to an official to have the token and their parkrun barcode scanned.

Since we do not have access to the parkrun servers we need every runner to register their parkrun id and other details with us before their first race. This will only ever need to be done once. Please use this register link to record your details.

NOTE THAT, NOW THE ADJUSTMENT PERIOD IS OVER, NO BARCODE OR NO REGISTRATION MEANS NO RESULT!


2023 RACE 10 - WEDNESDAY 16TH AUGUST 7:00PM - IBM HURSLEY

Results available below.

List of all men and women in finish position order is here.

RACE COUNT TABLE
Table showing the number of RR10s everyone has run from 1995 onwards. Let me know if there are any mistakes/name changes. [webmaster@rr10.org.uk - Alan Tulip]
Personal music players with earphones are not allowed during RR10 races. It is very important that marshalls' instructions can be heard at all times, and some runners have complained about being blocked on narrow parts of a course by runners unaware that someone was coming up behind them.

Malcolm Price has written a short history of the league, and added some thoughts on the future.


There is now a public RR10 Facebook group called RR10 LEAGUE.

DISCLAIMER
Runners participate in these races at their own risk.

AGE LIMITS
In order to be covered by UK Athletics public liability insurance and to gain a UKA permit for each race, we have to conform to the rules laid down by UKA. Rules 507 and 508 specify that only Under-17s and older can run in Cross Country races of the normal RR10 distance (up to 8K). This means that all men and women competing must have been at least 15 on August 31st of the year prior to the series (so 31 August 2004 for the 2005 series). Note that the age limits for men and women are now the same.
EXCEPTION - With the agreement of all the clubs, the following modification to the restriction above has been agreed:
Members of the participating clubs who are aged 15 on the day of the race, but were not 15 on 31 August of the previous year, may also run in RR10 league races, but only with the explicit permission of their clubs or coaches.

CLUB MEMBERS ONLY
RR10 races are for members of the participating clubs only. Again for insurance reasons, we have to insist on this. It is also unfair that non-members should turn up and run a race for free that is being organised by these clubs. Some clubs are in favour of not giving finishing position tickets to runners not wearing club vests. This will not be enforced, but we do very strongly urge all runners to run in their club vests.

Please send any comments/corrections to Alan Tulip at webmaster@rr10.org.uk. I am still interested in any results from years prior to 1995 that I can add to this page, even if only the title winners for that year.
