XTERRA Americas Tour

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.

You must start at least three (3) XTERRA World Championship qualifying events in the Americas region to be eligible for XTERRA Americas Tour Champion honours. There is no limit to how many races you can do, but only races in the Americas region count towards Americas Tour titles. The season spans the entirety of the calendar year, from the first race of the season to the last.

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.

The athlete with the highest final score at the end of the season - by gender and age group - earns the title of XTERRA Americas Tour Champion.

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.
