About this Race Series

2026 Grand Prix Rules

A runner must be a Tidewater Strider member in good standing at the time of Grand Prix sign up and at the conclusion of the season and complete a minimum of 6 races. Races only count from date of sign up and forward. Any corrections should be emailed to the Grand Prix Chairman as soon as possible.

There is no automatic roll over on the Grand Prix sign up from the 2025 season. You must sign up again for 2026 and use the link on RunSignUp at https://runsignup.com/Race/VA/VirginiaBeach/TidewaterStriderGrandPrixSignup

Races are scored based on finish. 20 points for 1st, 18 for second, 16 for third, and etc. All finishers not in the top 10 will score 2 points. Both the 10 and 15 mile races in Distance Series II & the 20k and 30k races in Distance Series III will count for full points. The other races in the Distance Series will not be scored.
