Treadin’ Trodden Trails Grand Prix

Overview

Although TTT has always maintained a no-frills approach to trail racing, in 2009 we began a Grand Prix type points system to reward top trail runners. Unlike road races, we keep things simple, separating only men from women and masters runners from younger participants. Thus the four categories, Open Male, Open Female, Masters Male, and Masters Female were born. Postseason awards were presented to top runners in each of those four categories, including fleece throws, hoodies, logo pint glasses, crew sweatshirts, and other simple but well-received awards.

In keeping with the commensurate effort and times required of those doing the long races vs. short races, we offer short race runners half value points, i.e., instead of the 100 points awarded to the first place finisher in a given category, we award 50, and so on down the line.
