We at Speedy Feet are racers ourselves and are again doing everything we
can to bring you the most fun, safe and economical triathlons around. Speedy Entry fees for the races are remaining
the lowest around and this year we’re including the shirt. Entry fees are $45 per race for a solo entry,
$100 per race for a team or two-person relay entry, $120 for 3 and 4 person
relays. Open class entry is $100 – you
are bringing your own boat. Please enter
3 weeks prior to the race if you to guarantee your shirt. Entries
after 3 weeks prior to race date will not be guaranteed a shirt!
Prize money in 2012 will be based on random drawing… so ANYONE CAN WIN, but you must be present
at the drawing at the series championship.
There will be a $500 first prize, a $300 second prize, and a $100 third
prize. For each race you enter, your
name goes into the drawing an additional time.
If you race 1 race, you get one chance; if you race 5 races, you get 5
chances. If you race more than one race,
you could actually win multiple prizes.
Awards will be given to the top three finishers/teams in each division
based on accumulated points. Points are
accumulated with the same partner just as they were last year. In each race, results will be posted to the
Speedy Feet website and ALL finishers will get a finisher’s medal at the
finish. Racers will accumulate points
toward the series standings in each race based on how they place within their
division. The divisions for each race
will be the same:
Male Coed Female
Male Master Coed
Master Female
Master
Male Grandmaster Coed
Grandmaster Female
Grandmaster
Parent/Child Relay
Open
(Racing Boat)
Male Solo (your own boat) Female
Solo (your own boat) Tandem
(2-person bike)
Combined age for “Master” must be 80. Combined age for “Grandmaster”
must be 100. Teams will automatically
assigned Master and Grandmaster based on their age on the entry.
Points are awarded based on the finish place in your division:
The overall fastest team and the overall fastest solo will receive 6 bonus
points in addition to the points earned for winning the division. Teams count their best 3 races towards the
standings. To win an award, you must
complete at least 3 races. You do not
have to race in the championship race, but points will be double. Also, you’ll want to be at the championship
in case your name is drawn for one of the random cash prizes. In the event of a tie, head-to-head
competition will be used to determine the final standings. You do not need to be present at the
championship race to collect your award.
They will be mailed if you are not there. After each race the series points will be
updated and posted to the Speedy Feet website.
Also back for 2012, there will be individual cash awards for the fastest male and
female runner and biker. $50 to each of the fastest male biker, female biker, male runner
and female runner. You must race
in 3 races to be eligible. We’ll take
pace for each race and average them to get your overall average. You don’t need the same partner either for
the fastest runner and biker awards. $50 also to the fastest male, female and coed teams in the canoe. For the canoe you must race at least 3 races
with the same partner. Also new this year, $25 for the fastest male solo and $25 for the
fastest female solo in the kayak.
If you have any questions, feel free to drop me a line or give me a
call.
