Elites

Over the past few years, we've been lucky enough to welcome elite runners to all our events. While our primary aim is to encourage participation in physical activity, we're proud to welcome them and encourage them to break course records with bursaries.

At each Thematic Race series event, there will be a targeted distance where scholarships will be offered to the first three men and the first three women to cross the finish line! There will also be a special purse ($150) for any athlete who breaks a course record for all distances of 5km or more. A history of best performances will be available for our elite and semi-elite Theme Races.

GENERAL RULES

La série des Courses Thématiques reminds athletes aiming for a podium, a course record or points for the jersey championship that they must respect a minimum of rules in the interests of fairness to all athletes aspiring to the same honours:

• It is forbidden to receive external assistance from a non-participant in the race (water, gels or other products).

• It is forbidden to have a personal pacemaker who does not have a race number.

• If a formally registered pacemaker helps a friend, he/she must do so from the start of the race, and his/her help may not be split up.

• It is forbidden to take shortcuts; you must follow the official route.

• Each rider is responsible for knowing the course, and the opening bikes are there to ensure safety.

• Ranking will always be based on Gun Time (official time), not Chip Time. We invite fast athletes to move to the front.
