This letter is specifically directed to road race directors in reference to award distribution to runners.
As a long time runner and former race director, I am very familiar with the costs involved and the necessity to try to keep the costs as low as possible and still be able to attract runners.
In small local races such as the ones I have noticed in this area, the number of runners are few so careful consideration must be given to the age groups offered. All runners pay the same entry fee and so everyone has a chance to earn an award in their age group.
