Stage Cancellation
If a stage of the series is cancelled due to weather or other circumstances,
no points will be awarded for that stage. If the stage is rescheduled on
the same weekend (e.g. Saturday race moved to Sunday), points will be awarded. A
stage that is shortened to a duathlon (run/bike or run/bike/run) will award points,
however a stage shortened to a run-only event will not award points. Cancellation
or shortening of the stage is at the sole discretion of the Event Director.
Field Limits
Series events are independently owned and operated by different race
organizers. Event Directors reserve the right to limit the number
of participants in their event for safety and logistics reasons. Participation
in previous stages of this series DOES NOT guaranty entry into subsequent
stages. It is in the athlete's best interest to register in advance
for ALL races in which they plan to participate. We have selected
only the highest-quality events for this series and many of them will sell
out early. Please do not ask the Series Director to "pull strings" to
get you into a series race...no exceptions will be made.
