is it top eight overall including pros or not including pros???
if the pros race the same course and same style then they are included, example:
Escape from Alcatraz you include the pros since they do the exact same course.
Boulder Peak you can take the pros out since the run course is different (loops for pros, out and back for AG’ers).
Westchester Tri take the pro’s out since it was ITU style in 2006 even though the courses were the same.
