POINTS & PARTICIPATION SERIES
THE 2026 PARTICIPATION SERIES IS ON HOLD THIS YEAR AS WE TRY TO REVAMP THE PROCESS.
Any points questions or corrections may be emailed to SRRCMembership@gmail.com.
The 2026 Points Series Standings will be updated and posted here after Abe's Amble.
2026 Point Series Rules:
Your eligibility begins once your membership is processed. To be eligible for all five SRRC Points races, a person must have his/her membership processed by the Lincoln Presidential Half Marathon. If a person applies for membership after the half marathon, that person will be eligible for all races thereafter. ​
The SRRC reserves the right to alter these rules when necessary.
-
Members must compete in a minimum of three of the five club races to be eligible for year end awards. Points classification will be based on the best three of five races (i.e. your lowest two scores will be dropped).
-
Age groups members 14 and under and 15-19 must compete in a minimum of two of the five club races to be eligible for year end awards. Points classification will be based on the best two of five races (i.e. your lowest three scores will be dropped).
-
Members must volunteer for a minimum of two of the five club races to be eligible for year end awards. Age groups 14 and under and 15-19 are not required to volunteer due to limitations. For this award, Abe's Army will not count as volunteering.
-
Your age as of the Lincoln Presidential Half Marathon will establish the age group in which you'll be competing for the entire year.
Tie Breaker Procedure (subject to change)
