MARATHON
Men and Women (no age breakouts)
XC races are scored according to category (Cat 1, 2, 3, Junior, First Timer) and class (age). Race length is determined by estimating how many laps can be completed in the following time frames:
35 minutes for Junior / Cat 3 / First Timers
70 minutes for Cat 2
105+ minutes for Cat 1 / Pro
The number of laps, or course length, will vary between the courses but will take into consideration time frames listed above. In other words expect to race about the same time at each course, with consideration to trail conditions.
Marathon races are scored by the number of completed laps within a 3 hour time frame. A racer cannot start a new lap after the 3 hour mark. Laps started before the 3 hour mark but finished after the 3 hour mark count!
