A race with a difference! What is a handicap race, you ask?

The goal of a handicap race is to level the playing field for runners of different abilities, so that everyone has an equal chance of winning. In practice, the slowest runner starts first with the fastest starting last. You will need to submit a recent race or parkrun time to [email protected] when you enter.
