Rules:
-You must choose the category you are going to compete in and STAY in that category for the finals
-Rankings for IMPROVEMENT:
-There will be one master list ranking participants on percentage improvement.
-This list is NOT categorized. Your category has no bearing on where you finish on this list.
-For example, if you compete in the intermediate category, and you have the highest percentage of overall improvement, you will be ranked #1.
-Rankings for TIME:
-There will be one master list ranking participants based on time
-Your TIME rank will be based on your performance within your category.
-Categories will be listed in the order Advanced, Intermediate, Beginner. This means that all Advanced category finishers will be ranked above ALL the Intermediate category finishers, who will be ranked above ALL Beginner category finishers.
-For example, if you compete in the intermediate category, the best ranking you can have is one below the lowest in the advanced category. So if there are 6 people in the advanced category, your ranking, if you are the fastest intermediate, is #7 overall.
