Event Description
WELCOME
The 2024 Wednesday Evening Event series is here with 4 events in May and 4 more in June.
The WEE series is a great introduction if you are new to the sport, or a valuable training opportunity if you are already a dab hand. For those who thrive on competition we also have something for you with the WEE series league table.
LOCATIONS
Parking: Glen carpark. Follow the one-way system through the park. Upon reaching the main car parks (near the visitor centre), follow the road towards the exit. The car park is on the right shortly after a steep incline on the road.

RESULTS
As well as the usual simple, winsplits and routegadget results, the 2024 WEE series will have two styles of handicap results published.
The first style revives the handicap system used in the past for the WEEs – a handicap which aims to put competitors on a level playing field for age and gender.
The second style is an innovative handicap system designed by Alan Gartside which, additionally, accounts for competitors who may have a long-term injury preventing them from travelling as fast as they otherwise could. This system is called hCOW.
