All race times will be verified, age graded and uploaded by the race director the week after each race.

What is age grading?

Age grading is a way of analyzing running performance relative to your age and gender. It is based on world record race time data and attempts to estimate the best possible time an athlete can run a certain distance based on their age and gender. By using age grading this “levels” the playing field, allowing older or younger runners to be able to compete equally against those in their 20’s-40’s.

When your race is age graded you will receive a score. At the end of the challenge each of your 3 scores will be added up to give you a final score.
