Our longest running competitive series, featuring our Northern Utah events… Mountain Tropic, Scofield & Park City! Winners will be those with the fewest points and will receive the best prizes of all! Register for all three races in the series to receive discounted entry fees and a giant point bonus, but to compete for the title just race the same distance at any 2 or all 3 events. Here’s how it works:
Rules & Scoring
- Each race distance, gender and division will be calculated & awarded separately. (Sorry, no relays.)
- Placing first in your age or weight group at one of our Trifecta events will earn you just 1 point. Second place will receive 2 points, third… 3 points, and so on. (Overall winners are excluded from age groups for award purposes only and will be scored based on their division standings.)
- Points will be averaged, then athletes who race at all 3 events will have 3 points deducted from their total.
- Check out this example of one division:
| Event | Athlete 1 | Athlete 2 |
| Mountain Tropic | 3 Points (3rd in Division) | 2 Points (2nd in Division) |
| Scofield | 2 Points (2nd in Division) | N/A (Unable to compete) |
| Park City | 6 Points (6th in Division) | 1 Point (1st in Division) |
| Average | 3.67 (11 points / 3 races) | 1.5 (3 points / 2 races) |
| 3 Race Bonus | -3 Points | |
| Final | 0.67 Points – WINNER! | 1.5 Points |
- In the case of a tie, the athlete who competed at all 3 events will win. If more than one athlete involved in the tie competed at all three, finish times will be summed up and the overall fastest will take the 2011 Trifecta title!
- Standings will be posted throughout the season.
- Results will be tallied and announced on our website during the week after Park City.
