Rules & Info

  • To be included in Ergon Metron and Metron Maximus rankings, you must enter and compete in the Summer Sweater 1K. Don’t wait to sign up! Once the SS1K is completed, you cannot enter the Maximus series, but you may still compete in individual races.

RACERS IN OTHER TIME ZONES may compete independently at their local time on scheduled race days but MUST manually submit their results on ErgZone within 24 hours of completing the event at their local time.

  • COMPETING ON AN OLDER MODEL ERG? You can still compete if your erg doesn't have a PM5 monitor. You won't be able to connect to live racing on ErgZone, but once you manually submit your score on the ErgZone app, it will count in our official results and rankings.

Refunds & Scratches

There will be no refunds. Please know this upfront. We count on your entry fee to support this event and all its associated costs.
