5K Overall Male and Female: 1st | 2nd | 3rd

The RCSTN Challenge bestows the following Master's awards in the 5K. Only the First Overall Male & Female Masters awards are presented at the post-race ceremony on stage following the 5K:  Overall Male & Female Masters: 1st

***The RCSTN Challenge has a non-duplication of awards policy. A runner who finishes in the Top 3 overall in the 5K run does not qualify to win an age group. Therefore, your finish in your particular age group category may improve due to other runners in your age group finishing in overall positions.
