Individual Scoring

• Runners scoring or winning awards in the Spring Road Race Challenge Series must be current USATF members resident in San Diego or Imperial Counties.
• USATF membership will be determined by downloading the San Diego Association roster from the USATF database on the Fridays before each race. If applications are mailed or delivered to the Association office, they must arrive in sufficient time for processing prior to downloading the roster. Memberships may also be obtained on line. For information on joining USATF, visit the Membership Page. To check membership status visit the USATF Membership page. For some races, applications may be taken at (and before) series races; competitors should not depend on this.
• There is no entry fee for the series (of course, you still must pay to enter the individual races).
• There are three divisions each for men and women: 39 & under, 40-49, 50 & over.
• A runner's division for the series is determined by his or her age on May 2, 2004. For example, a runner turning 40 on April 15, 2004 would compete as a 40-year-old for series scoring purposes for the entire series.
• Scoring for all divisions will be on a 100-90-81-73-66-59-53-48-43-39-35-32-29-26-23-21-19-17-15-14-13-12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis for the first five races.
• The point value of the Championship is doubled, plus an additional one-point finisher (200-180-162...8-6-4-2-1).
• Runners must complete at least three races in the Spring Road Race Challenge Series plus the Championship to be eligible for awards.
• A runner's total score for the series will be the score for the Championship plus the three best scores in other series races.
• Highest scores win. Ties will be broken by higher placing in the Championship race.
• The winners of each of the six divisions in each race will earn Spring Road Race Challenge Series Leader singlets. Recipients are encouraged to wear them at the next race.
