2025 Wisconsin Triathlon Series: Scoring & Awards

Series scoring is based on your five best race times out of the seven events in the series.

At each race, the overall male and female winners are awarded 1,000 points.

All other athletes earn points using the following formula:

Points = (Winning Time / Your Time) × 1,000

Example:

Will B. Goodbiker wins Lake Mills in 60 minutes → 1,000 points
Bob A. Fastrunner finishes in 61 minutes → (60 / 61) × 1,000 = 983.6 points

Your best five race scores will be tallied, and the athlete with the highest total points in the male and female categories will be named the Series Champion.
