Interesting to see how this gradually shakes out. Div16 already won't now see relegation for a couple of weeks and I find myself in a keenly contested Div22 where if some more fast runners join, I may get relegated further this week! 
Looking forward to a few badges later in the year!

This morning I was in the relegation zone for div 17, but now I'm just 3rd from the bottom. There's no point in me dropping out, because almost everyone in divs 21 and 22 are faster, so it'll be months before I can get moving back up.
I just need to take up running again and build up to take 6 minutes off my best 10k time of the past 12 months.

Div 22 is cut throat!
Isn’t it! I don’t think I’d be in the top half of Div 22, so they’re all going I come steaming past me in Div 21 over the next three or four weeks … and then I’m still a couple of weeks off the promotion spots in Div 21. I’m predicting my first badge in June sometime - at the very earliest!

I’m seven places below you, so at least two weeks later for my first badge! Although my marathon in two weeks might help a bit, it will fill in a missing number anyway.

Filling in a missing number is probably the best way to earn extra points. Especially if it is a marathon, as there aren't that many marathon scorers in the lower divisions.

I’m about to lose a load of my best times from 5k through to 10m. And without any flat races not sure it’s the best time for me to leave and restart.

We are up to 24 divisions now Not sure how much of that is down to people leaving and rejoining, but we also have 430 players, so enough to fill 21.5 divisions.
Will be interesting to see how the dynamics play out over the next couple of weeks. I wonder if the folks who left to rejoin are regretting it?

I am regretting it Fetch. If I had stayed on in div 8, I would have had a chance of promotion to div 7 due to those who were above me and then left and rejoined leaving gaps in the divisions above.
I would not normally stand a chance of reaching the lofty heights of a Div 8 promotion badge, but have now sadly lost my chance

I’m so slow I’m not sure it makes much difference. But as least having reset I’ve got some chance of getting no. 20 at some point, rather than lolling around in 16 forever
And WW is more-or-less my alter ego in this, so at least I can see what might have been. For better or worse. lol.
