| USATF National Championship Prize Money |
|
For those who are competing in the 2011 USATF 100 Mile Trail National Championship at the Burning River 100 on July 30-31, below is the breakdown of prize money for the event. Total Prize Money: $10,000+ Each of the following prizes are available for both the USATF Male and Female categories: Overall (open) 1st $1250 Age Groups Each USATF age group winner wins $250: Notes: To be eligible for prize money, runners must be USATF members and US citizens at the time of the race. (See http://www.usatf.org/membership for more info or to become a USATF member.) Runners must also follow USATF rules and race-specific rules for national championship runners. To distinguish between the two groups National Championship runners must wear an additional back bib throughout the racewith the runner's age . For example, championship runners will NOT be allowed to have a pacer at any time during the race. (Non-championship runners will be able to have a pacer beginning at approximately Mile 55.) USATF Runners will only win ONE prize. e.g. If the first place runner is 40 years old, he or she will win the $1250 overall prize and not the $250 top masters prize. Prize money checks will be mailed out approximately one week after the event. Burning River 100 General Awards There will also be the regular (non-monetary) overall awards(non-USATF): 1st-3rd overall, 1st Masters (40-49) and 1st Grandmasters (50+)
