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.
