Centennial Cup
Running Route
Easy
5.08 km
48 m
5km club race along south coast waterfront starting at Island Bay. This Saturday we have our first club race of the season. It is the traditional opening race of the season where members will compete for the new Centennial Cup, formerly the Le Gaye Rosebowl. It is a “sealed handicap” event where our handicapper has estimated your time over 5km to determine your handicap. Everyone starts together and the finishing times are adjusted by your handicap to determine your net time and the overall winner of the Cup.
As usual we will meet and change at the Presbyterian Church, 88 The Parade, Island Bay (just before the shops).
Course Change: This year you need to jog or drive the 1.2km down to the start line on the waterfront (adjacent to the band Rotunda). From here it is an out and back course heading towards the Airport. All flat.
