Triathlon & Duathlon Champions Challenge
We are pleased to announce the introduction of the Champions Challenge, a competitive program within the 2007 Eastern Triathlon & Duathlon Series. In its first year, the program will consist of two divisions; a Triathlon Champions Challenge, and a Duathlon Champions Challenge.

The Champions Challenge is a performance based ranking system that scores individual race performances on a points-per-race basis. Each 2007 Eastern Triathlon & Duathlon Series event will feature 1 Triathlon Champions Challenge Race and 1 Duathlon Champions Challenge Race – a total of 16 races.

Participants receive points based on their place in a Champions Challenge Race, with the top 250 finishers in each race, and category, receiving points.  The athletes with the most Championship Challenge Points over the course of the season will be declared the official Triathlon Challenge Champions or Duathlon Challenge Champions. The overall winners will be declared the Outstanding Triathlete and Outstanding Duathlete of the Year. All Champions Challenge Category Winners will be honoured and rewarded, at a year end Eastern Triathlon & Duathlon Series Champions Challenge Award Reception.
