The Grand Prix series is open to all runners, but since 2016, while points will be tallied for all runners and walkers throughout the year, all Grand Prix award winners must join or renew with CRR sometime during the Grand Prix year.

Awards
Overall awards to top three men and women, and 1st Master (ages 40-and-over) man and woman. Overall awards include $100 merchandise gift certificates to 1st overall male and female, $75 to 2nd overall, $50 to 3rd overall, and $50 to 1st Master, male and female, courtesy of Colonial Sports.
Beautiful award plaques (color design with times for all races run during the year) to all overall categories and to first and second place in the following age groups (men and women): 19-and-under, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70-and-over, and race walking. Merchandise gift certificates ($20 to age-group firsts and $10 to age-group seconds), courtesy of Colonial Sports.

Awards determined by points accumulated in each race. Points in the overall category will go 10 deep in each race (10 for 1st, 9 for 2nd, etc.). Points in the Masters, age group and race walking categories will go 5-deep (5 for 1st, 4 for 2nd, etc.). Points will be totaled from each race in overall, Masters, age group and race walking categories, but there is no duplication of Grand Prix series awards.
AA maximum of the 12 best scoring races count in the point standings. Note that there were a total of 16 CRR Grand Prix races for 2020 (fewer due to the coronavirus), and 24-25 races are expected for 2021. Ties broken by CRR membership, head-to-head competition, fastest 5K times, and CRR race volunteer points, in that order. Starting in 2016, although points will be tallied for all runners and walkers throughout the year, all Grand Prix award winners must join or renew with the CRR sometime during the Grand Prix year.
Updated 2020 CRR Grand Prix point standings will be available on the CRR website, and at each CRR race. The Grand Prix awards are normally given out at the annual CRR Awards Banquet the last Saturday in January, but due to the continuing coronavirus epidemic, alternate plans will be made for safety purposes, outside and when it’s warmer.
