* Runners may only participate in 1 Race Per-Meet, but may run in Both JV & Varsity Divisions at different meets within the Series.


** Athletes above Grade 10 may participate in the JV 3K but will be excluded from Awards & Scoring in that Division. The race will still count towards their 4 Meets for Regionals.

COURSE:
Located on the campus of the Fulton County School District. The trail is a 2 circuit course for a 5K race and a 1 circuit course for a 3K race. The course is run on a variety of surfaces including Grass 40%, Asphalt 30%, Dirt 25%, and Gravel 5%. The course is marked by means of a mowed path, painted directional arrows, and surveyor flags at 50yd intervals. The final straightaway runs the length of the football field marked with a cone runway and FINISH line chute. The scoreboard will run as a countdown timer for the Course Record.

MEET SCORING:
RaceTab 3 will be used for Meet Scoring. STANDARD KHSAA/NFHS Rules will apply for Team Scoring during each Meet of the series. Top 5 runners per team will be scored, runners 6 & 7 will act as displacers, any others will be ranked but not affect team scoring. Only teams fielding 5 or more runners will receive a Team Score in each Meet.

SERIES SCORING:
MODIFIED SCORING will be used to determine Overall Team Champions for the Series. Schools not able to field a full team of 5 in each Division are Still Eligible for Team Awards. If a school has less than 5 runners, those that complete a race will receive their rank & score based on their best time for the course. The Ghost Runners needed to get a team up to 5 will earn the points left after all real runners are scored. Example If Team A lacks 2 runners to get a team score and the last real runner in the overall rankings to score was 48 then Team A would receive the points for places 49 & 50 for their Ghost Runners. If another Team B lacks 4 runners in that same Division they would receive points for places 49, 50, 51 & 52.
