Festival of Races
2020

We are featuring  "THREE Best Times" for our 2019 Festival of Races which gives runners of all age divisions to compete and choose to run races of their choice, whether they are 5K, 10K or the Hazleton Half 13.1, they will be scored the same and you can run as many races as you like we would just take your best 3 scores from the competition.  The scoring for races over a 5k will be equated back to a 5k time based on the following calculations. These calculations were taken from marathon guide.com. For a 10k time, your time will be cut in half and then decreased by 4 percent. For the 8 mile race in the series, your time will be divided by 2.58 (equating it to a 5k) and then decreased by 5 percent. 

Our new age group awards allow runners of all ages to compete against their fellow competitors in their corresponding 10 year age groups.

As in the past, scoring will be based on the winner's time so each race will be dependent on the winner's performance and points will accrue from zero. Your score represents the amount of seconds you were behind the first place finisher.
