Individual Race Awards
Each race will have two winners, the racers who complete the longest distance in the allotted time – one Male and one Female, who will each get 100 points. All other runners will be assigned points based on the % back from the winning distance for your specific gender.
Example:
Winning Male finishes Race 1 with 6.2km and gets 100 points
Winning Female finishes Race 1 with 5.7km and gets 100 points
Racer A is Male and ran 5km which is 80.6% of the winning Male distance, so you would get 80.6 points
Racer B is Female and ran 4.8km which is 84.2% of the winning Female distance, so you would get 84.2 points
Racer B would be ranked ahead of Racer A as they had a better relative score in this race
Full Series Awards
Because you are hitting so many different intensities in this race series, the overall rankings are a very different kind of challenge! There are 2 full series awards, and only one of each will be given out! Will it be you?
Overall Series Winner
There is only one winner, and this award goes to the racer with the highest score across the series. The more races you do, and the better you place in each the better your chances!
Example:
Racer A (Female): Race 1: 82 points Race 2: 81 points Race 3: 89 points Race 4: 86 points Total: 338 points
Racer B (Male): Race 1: 100 points Race 2: 82 points Race 3: 74 points Race 4: 66 points Total: 322 points
Racer A (Female) would win the overall series with 338 points!
Most Consistent
The Most Consistent prize is for the one racer that has the most consistent ranking across all 4 races. It doesn’t matter how fast or slow you are, this racer will be the most well rounded athlete, with the best relative performance in each race length from 20 minutes to 12 hours!
*This is calculated using the standard deviation of your scores from each race across the series. The racer with the lowest standard deviation wins!
Example:
Racer A: Race 1: 62 points Race 2: 61.5 points Race 3: 61.7 points Race 4: 62.1 points Standard Deviation 0.28
Racer B: Race 1: 84 points Race 2: 80 points Race 3: 71 points Race 4: 62 points Standard Deviation 9.81
Racer A would win, as they have the lowest deviation, and most consistent results!
