Series rules
Scoring: ATR Series standings will be based on the sum of “Percentile Points” achieved in a participant’s top four races plus any “Bonus Points” earned. 
- Percentile Points for the mountain, trail and cross country races are calculated for each race like a standardized test:
( (Total Finishers - Place + 1) / Total Finishers ) x 100.
Example of the Scoring System: 
   A runner finishing 1st of 200 finishers receives 100.0 points calculated as follows: ((200 - 1 + 1) / 200) x 100 = 100.0 points.  
  A runner finishing 150th of 200 finishers receives 25.5 points calculated as follows (200- 150 + 1) / 200 x 100 = 25.5 points

All finishers in a given race regardless of USATF membership status count in determination of the percentile point calculation.
Percentile Points calculations will be carried to one decimal point for each race. In the case of a tie, the tie will be broken by comparing the participants’ top single Percentile Point race score.

- Scoring for the Track and Road events will default to Masters Athletics age grading found at mastersathletics.net 

- Bonus Points: A bonus of 15.0 points will be awarded to finishers achieving their performance in the Cross Country, Track & Field, and 5km Road Championships.

- 5km road race note: A list of sanctioned events can be found here
