About the event

What is the Omnium

We have borrowed the term from track cycling, which see cyclists take on a range of different events, in a best all rounder style competition. We are very excited to be bringing the format into the running world, in a fun and friendly event which is open to everyone, just like all our events.

Runners will take part in four to five events, usually all on one day, and they are awarded points based on their finishing position; 1 point for first, 10 points for tenth etc. The overall standings are based on cumulative points, with the lowest score finishing first overall. All events are given equal weight, so a consistent and measured performance across the events is key. We will also be introducing slightly lower age restrictions on the Endurance events (as this is not a UK Athletics affiliated event), so this could be a great leveller between young speedy runners who will gain a lot of points on the Sprint, and the runners with more stamina who will pick up more points in the longer distance events.


The minimum age for the Bronze is 12 years old, Silver is 14 years old, Gold is 17 years old and Platinum is 18 years old.


(The Omnium event is similar, but different, to our existing Mini Challenge (5km + 10km + Half Marathon times) or Challenge (10km + Half Marathon + Marathon times) events which sees people take part in multiple events on multiple days with a final standings produced by cumulative time.)
