Point Standings

The best value in racing anywhere in the U.S.! The best in courses, venues, area amenities, tourist destinations and activities in the entire state. We host events in many of the states top 10 tourist destinations in the state so bring the family and enjoy your weekend getaways while participating in a multi-sport race.

Something for every level of athlete as our MMSPS format at most venues includes a Sprint Triathlon and Duathlon distance along with a Olympic distance event. If you are just starting out in the sport or are a seasoned vetren we have an event for you.  

Points are accumulated from each event in the long course triathlon race. At the Michigan State Championship @ Pontiac Lake in September another MMSPS champion will be crowned. Another first in the sport, un-matched anywhere, LIFETIME FREE PASS in all MMSPS events to the male and female champion in the long course TRIATHLON only. (in the past we have had a duathlon champion but do to an increasing decline in duathlon numbers we will not have a lifetime pass for duathletes). That is right, race for free in the 10 MMSPS events for the rest of your life. This applies to those races in the series this year (2010) For Example - Our first champion 4 yrs. ago only races in 6 MMSPS events for free as there were ony 8 in the series and two are gone now (Van Ettan and Paul Bunyan events) There are no additions or modifications to the series.

Points for 2010 will accumulate utilizing a formula for ONLY those athletes registered in the series along with PRIMES being awarded for the fastest Swim, Bike, Run Split of the day giving an extra 100 points.

What is required for each champion EACH and EVERY year is that they print an entry from the website and send in to us indicating what events they plan on attending. YOU WILL NOT be allowed to race for free if you show up day before, day of for ANY race in the series. Once we receive that entry for the year we will put you in the system. EMAIL notification that you will be at an event will not be allowed anylonger!
