Welcome
to the Stoned Elephant Stampede. As we proceed through 2010, you
will be able to view the rankings of runners who enter and compete for the
Runner's of the Year in 2010. Below you will find the races, and way points will be
earned. Remember the titles will not always be to those who enter a
few races and take away trophies and bucks. These awards are for those
dedicated individuals to take the time and energy to give back to our sport.
The standings will consist of two elements: 1. The
basic points. 2. Bonus points. Basic points will
be automatically tabulated as the season progresses. These will
be updated on a regular basis. Bonus points will be awarded,
and in some instances you will have to alert me to them.
I will publish the standing, you will be able to
follow along as the season progresses. Basic points will be
specific to the races that I time with one exception. That
will be Louie's Run. Louie's Run contributed two free
applications to a couple of lucky category winners for 2010.
So here is how it will go.
