Scoring
Points are awarded based on an individual’s best top nine age group finishes in any 3 of the 7 races in the series. Age is determined by the first race an individual runs in the series. Points are awarded in the following age/sex categories:
Male/Female: under 40, 40-49, 50+
Place points: 1st=10, 2nd=8, 3rd=7, 4th=6, 5th=5, 6th=4, 7th=3, 8th=2, 9th=1
In the event of a tie after completion of the Series, the following tiebreaker rules will be used in order:
- The runner who has completed more Series events is placed ahead.
- If the runners have run against each other the higher placing (overall) runner is placed ahead.
- The runner who ran in the series final (Walk In The Park 50K) is placed ahead.
- If the tie still exists a coin toss will be used.
