Series Rules
The series is scored for both an open division and in
separate age groups: 19 and under, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59 and 60
and over. The runners with the most points at the end of the year
will receive awards. To be eligible, a runner must compete in at
least three series races. For the open division, the first place
runner is assigned 10 points, the second place runner is assigned 9
points, etc. For each age group, the top 5 runners in each race will
receive points, with the first runner being assigned 5 points,
etc. The more races in the series that you run, the more points you
get. Your best 5 races count toward the competition. |
