Important Notes

 
The Senior, Masters and Masters O50 races are combined for each gender.
 
All athletes may count in the Senior championship race (individual and team) as well as their own age category, therefore a Masters’ athlete can count in both the Senior AND Masters individual and team races.
 
However, a Masters athlete cannot compete in both the O40 and O50 individual championships – only their own age category.
 
In scoring the Masters team placings, only Masters athletes are considered.
 
Prizegiving
 
Medals will be presented on the podium (near the Start/Finish area) shortly after each race.
 
Results will be posted on the Scottish Athletics website.
