EMEA'S Premier Off-Road Triathlon Series
Putting the region’s best triathletes to the test across every terrain imaginable, the EMEA tour touches down in 14 countries, from the rugged and rocky mountains of South Africa to the pristine lakes of Italy, to decide who will be crowned champion of the European, Middle Eastern and African region.
To be crowned champion, athletes must compete for points using the XTERRA World Performance Index - a proprietary, formula-driven system that delivers a score for every finisher based on factors such as field strength and depth, number of participants, elevation, water and air temperature, rainfall, trail conditions, and more.
Those with the highest XTERRA World Performance Index points score at an XTERRA EMEA event at the end of the season - by gender and age group - will be named as the new reigning XTERRA Tour Champions of the EMEA region.
The tour is open to all amateur off-road triathletes, but athletes must start in at least three events within the tour to be eligible to be crowned as an XTERRA EMEA Tour Champion.

Rules and Qualification
1.
Age Groups
The age groups that form part of the regional tours are: 18-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74, 75-79, 80+, and Physically Challenged. Your age on December 31 determines your age group.
2.
Race Participation
You must start at least three (3) XTERRA World Championship qualifying events in the EMEA region to be eligible for XTERRA EMEA Tour Champion honours. There is no limit to how many races you can do, but only races in the EMEA region count towards EMEA Tour titles. The season spans the entirety of the calendar year, from the first race of the season to the last.
3.
Score
You will receive an XTERRA World Performance Index points score at every event you compete in. You will also receive a loyalty bonus score, which is one point for each race you participate in beyond the minimum required (3). Your final score is your highest WPI score plus your loyalty bonus as a percentage.
Example: Your highest WPI score is 195, and you participate in 5 races, so your loyalty bonus is 2. Your final score is 195 + 2% = 198.9.
4.
Tour Champion
The athlete with the highest final score at the end of the season - by gender and age group - earns the title of XTERRA EMEA Tour Champion.
5.
Tie Breakers
If there is a tie in the final score in the division, the tie-breaker will be the person finishing highest in the most recent race where both competed. If no head-to-head exists, the tie-breaker will be the person with the most tour wins. If still tied after counting wins, tie-breaker goes to the person finishing highest in the most recent race.

Am I allowed to compete at a Regional Tour that my nationality is not part of?
How many races do I have to do to qualify for Tour honors?
When does the season start and finish?
How is my score calculated?
If some events score higher than others, wouldn’t this mean the winners will most likely just be the winners of the event? Or do all events have the same scoring potential?
Do I have to keep track of my score, or do you?
Can I see the formula you use?
So, is my final score the average of my three scores?
Do sprint races or any other formats count towards regional titles?
I'm in my division racing for the Tour title. Will one of my races have to be a Championship (Asia-Pacific, European or North American) race in order to win the Tour Title?
So what role does a Championship (Asia-Pacific, European, or North American) race play in winning the Tour title?
How and when are the Tour winners decided?
What if there’s a tie?
