QUALIFICATION FOR ENTRY

The selection of invitees will be based upon the experience and other qualifications and criteria of each applicant. At a minimum it is expected that the applicant will have completed at least one iron distance race within the previous 18 months of the event being applied for. Other ultra distance events are also considered a qualifier assuming they have distances equal to or better than iron distances. Other solo ultra distance vents are considered if it is deemed they require the planning and training that would be of benefit to the athlete doing Ultraman.

The Application Review Committee’s decision is final as to which applicants will receive an invitation.
