QRS Summer Sizzler is back! Get ready for a 4-race challenge at four beautiful parks in Doha!
Presented by Z Adventures in collaboration with Qatar Sports For All, QRS Summer Sizzler 2024 offers a range of events for all ages, from an 800M Mini-Kids race to a 5K for adults. The races will be held at Al Rayaan Park, Al Muntazah Park, Aspire Park, and Oxygen Park. Each event will take place on accurately measured short courses with multiple laps, and participation is limited to a maximum of 200 athletes per race.
START TIMES
EVENT DATES
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Please note that the distances in the first 2 parks are not exactly as advertised above. This is due to the length of the trails. At Al Rayyan Park, the course loop is 1.18K and in Al Muntazah Park, it is 1.2K. Courses at Aspire Park and Oxygen Park will be exact.
INDIVIDUAL SERIES POINTS SYSTEM
The 4-race series will have a points system which will count towards the overall series awards. Points are calculated based on the athlete’s finish position in their category.
As our adult races offer two distances (5K & 3K), points will be equally allocated for each distance. The winner in each category will receive 50 points, followed by 49 points for 2nd place, 48 for 3rd place, 47 points for 4th place and so on. Minimum points for completing a race is 20. In the event of a tie, the athlete with higher distance covered over the series will be the winner. If they are tied on points and distance, then the athlete with the lowest aggregate time will be placed higher. In the event athletes cannot be separated by points, distance and time, then both will be placed jointly in the standings.
For example: Athlete A, wins all 4 races in 5K and obtains 200 points. Athlete B wins all 4 races in 3K and obtains 200 points. In this case, Athlete A will be placed higher than Athlete B in the overall standings.
SERIES AWARDS:
Male and female series winners will receive prizes which will be presented after the end-of-season race.
