The Hagg XC

This was the first fixture in the clubs 2018 Grand Prix: A Club-only cross country event at The Hagg. The course is slightly tougher than a standard NEHL cross country, but like a normal XC the ladies run two laps and the gents run 3.

Combined

Although the men ran 3 laps and the women only two, for the purposes of having a “combined” grand prix table, we need to somehow get some comparable age graded times. To do this, we’ve simply multiplied the women’s times by 50% (to account for a 3rd lap), and that gives these results:

Position	Name	Actual Time	Age Graded Time	GP Points
1	Gareth Forbes	0:58:02	0:55:46	50
2	Tom Bentley	0:58:11	0:56:43	49
3	Ruth Bentley	1:03:26	1:01:18	47
4	Meg Walke	1:18:39	1:00:26	48
5	Rose Todhunter	1:22:23	1:06:56	46
6	Jayne Phillips	1:27:18	1:09:26	45
