MRT 2026 1 Mile-2 Mile-1 Mile
The MRT Series event held at the Statesville Soccer Complex in Statesville, North Carolina, features a multi-race format. Participants compete in a sequence of three distinct races during the evening: a 1-mile run, followed by a 2-mile run, and concluding with a final 1-mile run. The schedule provides a five-minute break between each segment, which begins once the final finisher of the previous race crosses the line.
This event is a component of the 2026 Championship Series, a larger competition consisting of 15 scheduled dates throughout the year. Runners earn points based on their performance in various categories, including overall, masters, and 5-year age groups. To qualify for the Series Championship, participants must complete at least 10 of the 15 races. Points are awarded as follows:
- Overall winners: 12, 10, or 9 points for the top three finishers.
- Masters: 8, 7, or 6 points for the top three finishers.
- Age Group: 5, 4, or 3 points for the top three finishers.
- All other participants: 2 points per race.
Additional points are awarded for competing in more than 10 races, and those who finish all 15 races receive a free entry for the following year. At the end of the series, cash prizes are awarded to the top five male and female championship winners. Awards for nightly placement are also provided. Dogs are not permitted at the event site.
