RACE LIKE A CHAMP GC
Compete in all 5 races (including stage 4a and 4b) during October as a general classification (GC) challenge and shoot for your best combined time over the month! You can improve your time for any event by racing it more than once. Only your best time will count towards your overall standing.

WHAT IS CATEGORY ENFORCEMENT?
Category Enforcement prevents Zwifters from entering a category they are not eligible for. Our goal is to increase fairness in racing. Find more information about it here.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
Zwift checks a racer's past performance using VO2max, MAP value, and FTP to determine their race category. Racers can join a category at or above their category. For example, if you are in the "C" category, you can race in C, B, or A category. But you can’t race in the D category.
