The runner who submitted the fastest time of his or her pair advanced to the next round. The runner with the slower time of the pair was eliminated.
All the challenges took take place on local Bow Valley climbs. Runners had to run the tournament on the segment that is selected each week.

The top three female and male runners walked away with $1500 in cash prize.
Joren Titus and Emma Cooke-Clarke - $350
Michael Burke and Amanda Butler- $250
Chris Balestrini and Anna Koevoet - $150
All the runners who complete all the challenges (eliminated or not in the brackets) were entered to a prize draw.
