CornerstoneCX will feature 2 waves of races on 2 separate courses.
Race 1 - Long Course:
+This is a 7-9 minute course (~1.2 miles in length) featuring a short section of gravel, loads of undulations, and plenty of twists and turns.
+These races will run in a "standard" format and are just a little shorter to help everyone stay a little fresh for the second wave of races.
+Top 5 racers from each race will qualify to move on to a "Qualifiers" race in the second wave of races.
Race 2 - Short Course:
+ This is a 4-5 minute course (~.8 miles in length) with some challenging hill work, fast technical turns, and with some flat technical sections sprinkled in.
+There will be 2 "Heats" in each of the 3 "Pools":
++Qualifiers: Top 5 finishers from each of the categories featured in the Pool
++General: Non-qualifiers from each of the categories featured in the Pool
+This allows EVERYONE who raced the Long Course to participate in the Short Course
+Qualifiers may be placed in a higher Pool by permission of the Chief Judge.
