The series layer adds strategy. Here's exactly how your loops turn into the championship title. 01 🎯 The Two-Race Minimum To appear on the official Master Circuit Standings, you must record completed loops at a minimum of two of our three circuit events. Run one event and your points still bank — but your name doesn't unlock on the master leaderboard until you hit that second starting corral. 02 📊 The Math: 1 Loop = 1 Point Your score is based entirely on distance — not position, not pace. At Austin's Backyard and Big Bastrop, every loop you finish before the 60-minute bell earns exactly 1 point. Example: tap out after 12 hours (the 50-mile mark) and you walk away with 12 points. 1.5× The Rodeo Multiplier ⛰️ Rodeo Points Per Loop Not all trails are equal. Because of the brutal terrain and sheer physical toll of the Rodeo Backyard Ultra, every completed loop is worth 1.5 points. Grind out a 50-miler (12 loops) at Rodeo and you're banking 18 points — not 12.

Flat bonus points go to the last two athletes — not affected by the Rodeo multiplier. +5 Last Person Standing Win the race. Earn five bonus points on top of your total loop score. +3 The Assist Complete the second-to-last loop. Three bonus points for making it a battle. 💡 The Strategy If you want to win the circuit, you can't cruise through one event. You need massive yards — and you absolutely want to take advantage of the point-heavy Rodeo course to launch yourself up the standings early in the season. The crown stays up for grabs until the final yard is run. Show Up. Line Up. WILL YOU BETHE LAST TEXANSTANDING?
