That's not what it said. It said this: "To qualify for the 2018 Life Time Tri New York City Championship, International distance athletes must either place in the top three of their age group or competitive class, or cross a Life Time Tri finish line placing in the top half of their age group, in at least two separate regions during the qualifying race season, which concludes at the 2018 Life Time Tri CapTex Triathlon. "
The two options to qualify are that you have to place:
1. Top 3 in AG or competitive class (in 1 race)
OR
2. Cross finish line in top half of AG in at least 2 races in at least 2 separate regions. (Regions are not detailed anywhere I could see but probably doesn't matter because of further fine print below).
Here it is made abundantly clear:

And the fine print for the multiple region, top half in AG, option:
"Qualifying participants are required to contact events@lifetimefitness.com to request guaranteed entry. The multi-region entry is limited to the first 100 applicants. Requests for the 2018 Championship event must be requested and processed by EOD October 27, 2017."
And that effectively means 2 of the next 4 races and maybe only 2 of the next 3 races because option 1 was qualified to include San Diego sprint but option 2 was not.
perhaps they should have hired someone with an english degree to write their content heh, thanks
so.... i just tried to sign up for san diego, and they are requiring usat membership...
