Series Structure
The ZRacing series consists of monthly sets of weekly races. Each race is scheduled for seven days (beginning 00:10am UTC on Monday and running through to the next Sunday). Timeslots are consistent week to week and month to month.
Races are scheduled ~15 times each day, so there are plenty of available times to find a race.

Monthly GC on ZwiftPower
Each monthly set of races has a time-based GC (general classification) which tracks riders’ best finishing times for each week’s race. The overall winners in each category for the month will be the riders with the lowest overall time for that month’s set of races.
With over 100 weekly timeslots available, riders can race each week’s event multiple times and try to better their finishing time.
Note: you must use a heart rate monitor and be on a smart trainer, smart bike, or power meter to show up in ZwiftPower results for this series.

Get the Badge
Each month’s series has a unique achievement badge, which you can unlock by finishing every stage for the month.
One and Done
Zwift has planned these events around the idea of a solid 1-hour workout, so each race should only take around 1 hour to complete, including your warmup and cooldown.
Past Rounds
May is the ninth round of the ZRacing series, which began in September 2022 with Get Rolling. This was followed by October’s Race Like a Champ, November’s Race Makuri, and December’s Race Like a Pro.
For 2023 we’ve had January’s Flat is Fast, February’s Race Scotland, March’s Race London, and April’s Cobble Crusher.
