Unlike ZRacing, there is no GC competition, just jump in and race whoever is in the pen next to you!
Crit racing is one of the best training experiences on Zwift as nothing quite pushes you to the edged with repeatable efforts over a 20-40 min race. So whether you race just for fun, to sharpen those legs for bigger race efforts, or just to get your daily burn, Zwift’s Crit Club is for you!
Category Enforcement will place you in a race category with riders of similar ability for these events. More info about Category Enforcement can be found below.
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.
