SENIOR SERIES 2008
The series was created to enable age group athletes in the south west to compete across a range of races. There are twelve races in the series and competitors must complete four of the events (including one open water). If a competitor completes more than four races, the best four scores will count to their overall points total.
To qualify for the series, competitors must be members of Triathlon England and live in the South West, or or be a member of a Triathlon England affiliated South West Regional club.
No race points will be scored for events that were completed before the Race Series Entry Form has been received by Race Series Co-ordinator. The form can be downloaded below.
The series is sponsored by MOTI (www.mymoti.com) and 2XU (www.2xu.com). Prizes for each age group will be supplied by 2XU at the end of the race season.
