The Ultra Trail Series encompasses a number of AURA races and fun runs. Individual points are awarded for each event completed, based on the UTS Rules. Male and Female, Open, Master, Grand Master, Senior, and Super-Senior winners (Kings/Queens of the Trail) are crowned at the completion of the series each year, based on point totals.
Some of the UTS races are low-key, no-fee, no frills, minimal aid events (a.k.a. 'fun runs'), while others are full-fledged races. Please plan and prepare accordingly. Some of the races in the series are not put on by the AURA.
Points standings are published regularly in the AURA newsletter. Sure, you can see them here too, but don't be a bum join the club and get the newsletter.

Some UTS race terms and guidelines
Sign-in sheet. It may be up to you to keep your own time, and sign in when you complete the run.
Water bottle. This is what you need to carry on most of the runs. For minimal aid races, there might be water set out, but there won't be cups. Show some consideration to your fellow runners by NOT tonguing the water jugs or wasting the water!
Donation can. If it's a no-fee race, there will be a donation can. Participants are encouraged to donate what they can. Your donations help cover the cost of our free events so RD's aren't out any money.
LOViT 100K/100M The 100M is not a UTS race but if you run the 100M, we will take your time at mile 62 (Spillway) and count it as having run the 100K.
For more information on Ultra Trail Series runs or the AURA, contact George or Stacey.
To switch from the regular UTS to UTS-Lite (or vice-versa) contact George.
