Rules and Regulations
The Kansas Duathlon Series is for all athletes participating in the following events outlined below and is separate
and distinct from the USAT regional and national ranking. Unlike USAT’s ranking, you do NOT need to be a USA
Triathlon annual member to become eligible for the Kansas Duathlon Series Rankings. There is no added cost or
action needed to be taken by the athlete to participate in the series point rankings. Athletes competing in these
Kansas Duathlon Series events will automatically be placed in the Series Standings by the Point Series Committee.
An updated list of points will be displayed on the Event Pages for each Duathlon event involved.
Series Points are awarded based on the following criteria:
 Athletes must compete in 2 of any of the three series events in order to be eligible for series awards/
recognition.

Series races include the HP3 Duathlon, Open Options Shawnee Mission Duathlon and the Prairie Punisher
Duathlon.

If an athlete starts a series event, but DNF’s (Does Not Finish), this race will count toward the series events and
will earn (0) points.

If a series event is cancelled, for any reason, the series three (3) races will be reduced to a series of two (2)
races.

Overall series awards/recognition will be given to the top two (2) overall men and women in each ten (10) year
age category (19 & Under, 19-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60+) along with the overall winner (1) in the team relay
category.

In the case that a series event alters the race course due to weather/safety concerns (ie: Duathlon to a shorter
course due to unforeseen circumstances), that event will be awarded ½ points (Example: 1st Place – 500 points
will now be worth 250 points)

Tie Breaker – If the top participants points earned are a tie after the Prairie Punisher Duathlon the following tie
breakers will be used to decide the winner in this particular order.
1.Races Competed In: Participants that competed in three races place over participants that competed in two
