2007 CARA Club Circuit Team Circuit Team Wins 3rd Place Award in Age Graded Scoring!
The Chicago Area Runners Association (CARA) sponsors a competition among running clubs in the Chicago area. The club circuit rules define the competitive rules. Two divisions of competition are defined: Yellow Division and Green Division. The essential difference between the divisions is the number of competitors who are scored. The Green division scores three (3) finishers plus one (1) tie breaker. The Calumet Region Striders have chosen to compete in the Green Division for 2007. All CARA Circuit Races are the venue for the competition with only the top 10 scores being counted. Any member of the Calumet Region Strider may be a member of our team. However, the official team roster must be sent to CARA 30 days before a specific race in order for a team member's finish to count in the score calculation. If you are planning on running a few CARA Circuit races this year, let me () know and I'll add you to the Official Team Roster. Mike Wilson (webmaster for the Calumet Region Striders) has agreed to serve as the Team Statistician and will provide the Team roster and the Team score to CARA. The Team score must be provided to CARA within two weeks of a race. Name, address and age are provided to CARA. As an experiment, CARA is also calculating age adjusted scores to see how it might impact competition in the future.
