PARTICIPATION AWARDS

Note

Due to going to Virtual runs for the 2020 Summer season, we are taking a new approach for offering Participation Awards, and new criteria for qualification for these. Please read the special Summer 2020 information below,

Participation Awards Program – Summer 2020 Season

Participation Awards for the Summer 2020 season are based on points.

Points are earned for participation in various running-related activities put on by the Wind Drinkers, such as participating in fun runs (including the ones from Winter 2019-2020), running on designated Wind Drinker Fun Run courses, volunteering at a run, joining our Strava Club, and participating in Fun Run Challenges.  Runners accumulate points for all the activities they do with the club – the more activities they do, the more points they accumulate!  Running totals of our runners’ points are updated regularly, and are displayed in our Summer 2020 Summary table.

Our awards, then, are also based on points.  We offer a variety of running-related swag items from which runners can choose.  Each item has an associated “price”, in points, which is the number of points that must be redeemed in order to receive the item.   The items and their point prices, as well as instructions on how to place orders for them, are listed on our Participation Award prizes page.  Those who run a lot, get lots of points – and thus, can get lots of prizes!
