The International Skyrunning Federation has laid-out an elite ranking system to “create a basis for 2013 for the Sky, Ultra and Vertical Kilometer® distances, a first list of élite athletes… based on an analysis of the results of the most significant races in 2012”…

From 2013 an exclusive algorithm will also be applied. The 2013 ranking will be based on 50 selected races (20 Sky, 20 Ultra, 10 VK), with the aim of reaching 100 races in 2014.

Full story and links to the ranking systems and athletes who feature are online at the ISF here
