The Stakes |
|
There are 6 race types, with 2 races in each. Athletes compete in both the events in their category and accumulate points in each race based on their finish. There will be 4 contracted GST Racers & 4 GST Challengers in each race. The events are for both males & females, and are as follows: |
 |
|
So if an athlete is contracted as a Short Distance runner they will run in both the 800m & the 1,500m. Athletes score points in both events, which are added together. Points will be distributed 10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1 for 1st to 8th place. The points create the final standings, and if there are any ties then the lowest combined running time is the winner. Points & finishes do not carry over to the next Slam. |
 |
Season-Long Stakes |
|
Highest combined prize pool for a season of track racing ever. Chance to win $400,000 in total prize money over the course of a season. Every place matters – we will bring the highest prize pool in the history of track from 1st to 8th place. |
