Final League Standings – League Results

League Rules:
Only open to individuals not those competing as part of a two person relay team.
Places in the league will be determined by summing the highest Points awarded from two races.  However, individuals only need to compete in one race to be part of the league.  No other races will be considered in the event of any ties.  Points for each race will be awarded according to the following formula:
50*(Total number of competitors – Individual’s finishing position + 1)/Total number of competitors

All Points will be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

Total number of competitors will include relay teams and DNFs, though will exclude those who intend at the start to only do the swim.  Finish position will include relay teams.  DNFs will not score any Points.

Swim:
375m out and back.

It is not anticipated that wetsuits will be either forbidden (above 22) or mandatory (below 14).
The swim start will be from along the slipway ‘wall’ in the water with all competitors required to be touching the wall at the start, they may push off from it.  Swimmers should keep the buoys on their right.

Transition:
This will be at the top of the slip (by the benches to the left). Competitors are required to leave their running kit and swimming accessories tidily.

Run:
From Transition run past the life boat hut along Rte de St Catherines, runners should keep to the left hand side of the road until ready to cross.  Right up Mont des Ormes along Le Grand Cotil and down Rue Du Moulin and back along Rte de St Catherine again keeping to the left hand side of the road.  Round the rock and all the way along the Breakwater turning clockwise at the end and then back to the monolith for a finish.
