Age group rule

While reading the athlete guide for IMMOO under USAT Rule Amendments, I see that bullet #3 states ‘Athletes wil race at the age they are on day of competition’. Do IM events not follow the ‘Age that you will be in a current year’ rule?

Nope. Different rule.

I wonder how that affects rankings?

If you do an IM at one age group are you measured against your USAT age group or your IM age group?

I need to know because it could mean I am ranked 595th instead of 607th :wink:

For all WTC affiliated races, athletes will compete with their race day age

USAT will use your results for rankings based on USAT “age up rule” … meaning they will be adjusted in your USAT age group.
