The Bakersfield Track Club Summer Series (formerly known as the Darryl Easter Memorial Handicap Series) is a series of 6 5K runs beginning in early June and running through most of the Summer. The events are held every other Tuesday at 7pm on Alfred Harrell Hwy just across from CALM. See Map
No watches allowed
Caution to the wise, 5K running events should only be undertaken by individuals who have been exercising regularly. The BTC and its members are always welcoming to people who want to begin an exercise program, but seek doctor's advice first. That being said, when you do come out to enjoy the fun, make sure you are well hydrated, and if you notice you are not feeling well, slow down and let someone know.
| $5 per event for non BTC members $4 per event for BTC members $3 per event for students |
| On your very first time out, you will be a "scratch runner," or a runner without a handicap. Scratch runners will be given a slip of paper indicating a 15 minute handicap (7:15 pm starting time).
The time run for the 5K this first time will be compared to a 30 minute benchmark. If you run longer than 30 minutes, you will earn a negative handicap (a 34:17 5K will result in a -4:17 handicap and you will begin your next race of the series at 4:17 before 7pm). If you run faster than 30 minutes, you will earn a positive handicap (a 22:51 5K will result in a 7:09 handicap and you will begin your next race at 7minutes and 9 seconds after 7pm).
The idea is that if everyone runs the exact same time next run, we all finish together at 7:30. That never happens. First one in wins. Best points goes to most improved runner.
