He certainly has -the training must be going well in defence of his English Championship!Originally Posted by Stagger
And there was me thinking a sub-35 minute race might bring more than a measly 55 points, but at least it's a start! If the knee holds up, could be Stanbury Splash next Sunday & then Wadsworth Trog for February - more bogs!
right, so, 8 of us at Lamb's Longer Leg!
using official results:
Winner (Si Bailey) - 23:58
Tindersticks - 31:44 - 68pts (no improvement on previous January score)
MickTor - 31:50 - 67
Marvin - 33:57 - 58
Hobbsy - 34:46 - 55
BritNick - 38:02 - 41 (no improvement)
Stagger - 38:13 - 41
DazTheSlug - 39:25 - 36
cyclops - 46:51 - 5
cyclops - that's still better than the 4 pts I got at Winter Hill last year!

cyclops/MickTor - pts are calculated as 100-percentage of how much slower than the winner you were
e.g. using BritNick's time of 38:02 compared to winner's time of 23:58
easiest way to explain is convert times to seconds, so:
38:02 = 38x60 + 2 = 2282 secs
23:58 = 23x60 + 58 = 1438
so, 2282 - 1438 = 844 secs slower
844/1438 = 0.5869263, i.e. 58.69% slower, so 41.31 pts = 41 to nearest whole point
N.B. Stagger's time of 38:13, although 11 secs slower than BritNick's, works out as 40.54, which is still 41 (showing that dominion's calculator is spot-on (although never in doubt!))

Cheers Daz! :thumbup:
very close at the sharp end of the Ladies' Competition
waiting for Trigger results...
next weekend should be busy too, with Stanbury Splash and The Hebden looming...
He's certainly done for me. Last year, 69 points. This year, I was a minute quicker, but only 58 points.
At least you got a can of Carlsberg for your efforts - 1st V55?
Marvin - I've put you into the table - I assume you wanted to join?
38:02 = 38x60 + 2 = 2282 secs
23:58 = 23x60 + 58 = 1438
so, 2282 - 1438 = 844 secs slower
844/1438 * 100 = 58.69262865090403
100 - 58.69 = 41
Is the full calculation that I use. Can't remember off hand where I put the rounding in.
