Awards

Each race will reward the individual effort of athletes who finish Overall, Masters, and top three in their respective age groups.  Some of the races will also offer top three relay teams, top three Fat Tire, and top three DU3 (swim/bike, swim/run, and bike/run).

Series Points System

This year athletes willl earn Alamo Tri Series Points for competing in Series events.  This will allow us to award a Top Overall Series Winner at the end of the season.

Here's the point breakdown:

• Finishing: 1 pt
• 5th Place Age Group: 2 pt
• 4th Place Age Group: 3 pts
• 3rd Place Age Group: 4 pts
• 2nd Place Age Group: 5 pts
• 1st Place Age Group: 7 pts
• Masters: 7 pts
• Overall: 8 pts

In the case of a tie at the end of the Series, we will look at: 1) # of Series races the athlete completed (the more the better), 2) # of Overall/Masters/Age Group wins, 3) aggregate finishing placement, 4) penalties assessed, 5) and if needed, we will let a monkey pull a random winner from a tube sock.

Participants in the Fat Tire, and DU3 options will score points based on overall gender placement, using the point system above.

No Series Points will be awarded to athletes from a Relay team.   If you want Points, you must compete as an individual.

How to get more entries -

Want to improve your chances at scoring one of the awesome Series Drawings?  It is easy, recruit some volunteers.  Provide two volunteers at a single event, and you will collect another entry into the Drawing.

If you cannot compete yourself?  Bring a friend and the two of you can earn one drawing entry.

An athlete can earn up to two (2) drawing entries per event.

The athlete must give the Race Director a week notice that you are bringing volunteers.  Volunteer slots are limited.  Tell the Race Director as early as possible that you are bringing help.
