Bourton Roadrunners’ Club Competitions
Club Competition Series. Each year members compete in the club’s own race series, with points being awarded for their best finishes versus fellow club members.
For 2023 the club series has been modified to provide an inclusive mix of external races and internal club events, including participation at club training sessions. Points can be earned all year round, up until one week before the annual prize-giving event in December. Please download a copy of the 2023 Club Competition Schedule and a full copy of the 2023 results now that all events have been completed.
Prior to 2023 members competed in a 6-from-10 format race series, with points being awarded for their best finishes versus fellow club members. The results for 2022’s Ladies’ and Men’s competitions after all ten events are available to download.

County Road Race Series.The club actively supports and participates in the Gloucestershire AAA competitions, including the County Road Series. These are the races for the 2022 series, as far as we know. You need to do 5 to qualify, but your best 8 results count. It doesn’t matter whether you're a hare or a snail; it’s divided into 5-year age categories, and you’ll help make up BRR teams either way. A chance to reap the rewards of all the efforts sessions, and mostly it’s just fun to get together and do something different! Book early because they often fill up! The updated list for the 2023 series is available to download.
The final results for the 2022 series are available to download. Special congratulations to our Darren Long (2nd MV45), Maxine Emes (3rd LV40), Gill Carrick (3rd LV60) and Liz Hulcup (1st LV65).
