What is the international ranking of Nordic Walking ONWF?

  • in short, the first competitor of the competition on a given distance gets the maximum number of points depending on the rank of the competition
  • next competitors score as many points as time loss they have to the first competitor

Example:

  • the rank of our competition is the National Cup, so the conversion rate is 1000.
  • The fastest competitor on the 5 km route of the standard competition covered the distance in 31:15 and scores 1000 points,
  • the competitor to whom we are counting points had a time of 42:28. The automatic algorithm calculates that the competitor with this time scores 735.9 points.
