CHAMPIONSHIPS In 2006 the M35 Team category was introduced but
remained an anomaly because of the 5 year span instead of
BMAF 10K the 10 year span in other team age groups. For 5 years the
CHAMPIONSHIPS number of M35 teams gradually increased with an exception
WMA WORLD of a dip in 2008 but the number of M40 teams decreased
CHAMPIONSHIPS whereas the number of M50 & M60 remained fairly constant.
