The event uses a category-based scoring system for both male and female participants, with age groups ranging from Under 18 to over 70. Trophies are awarded based on performance throughout the series, specifically looking at the best positions across four out of the five races. Overall individual awards are also presented to the top three female and male finishers.
Participants who complete four out of the five races in the full series are eligible to receive a T-shirt. Proceeds from the event, beyond necessary expenses, are allocated toward trophies, medals, spot prizes, and the organization Running Headfirst. Registration is managed online, with the possibility to enter up to 30 minutes before the event begins. Results are published promptly following the conclusion of the race.
