Greetings! We are over half-way through the 2025 Rochester Runner of the Year Series and we are mid-way through summer as well. Below you will see a link for current standings for this year’s Runner of the Year Series after race #8, the Karknocker 5K. The scores for women come up first, and then those for men are listed. Since there are still 5 more races, anything can change between now and the end of the series. This year, runners must participate in at least 5 of our 13 races to place, and a runner’s top 6 races count. All races run score points, even if you are having a bad day, so a person running 6 races, in most cases, will have an advantage to someone who ran 5. Our next race is the Black Diamond half marathon on Sunday, 8/24. It’s a shaded, flat, easy trail. After that we have 2 5Ks left and 2 10Ks.
