The order of the disciplines in each round is altered as follows:
Round 1: 300m Swim-6km Bike-2km Run
Round 2: 2km Run-6km Bike-300m Swim

|
The Eliminator:
The Eliminator comprises three rounds of swim-bike-run with a 10-minute break in between each round. The 10-minute break commences at the time the first place finisher crosses the finish line of the previous round. Athletes will be eliminated each round with only 10 athletes completing the third and final round.
The elimination process is as follows:
Round 1– athletes finishing in 16th to 20th place will be eliminated
Round 2– athletes finishing in 11th – 15th place will be eliminated
Round 3– no athletes will be eliminated.
Eliminator Points: 1th - 20, 2th - 18, 3th - 16, 4th - 15, 5th - 14, 6th - 13, 7th - 12, 8th - 11, 9th - 10, 10th - 9, 11th - 8, 12th - 7, 13th - 6, 14th - 5, 15th - 4, 16th - 1, 17th - 1, 18th - 1, 19th - 1, 20th - 1.
Non-finishers, including eliminated athletes, will receive zero (0) points.
All finishers in 16th Place and above will all receive one (1) point. Non-finishers will receive zero (0) points.
Points are allocated based on an athlete’s finish position in any race in which they are eliminated. For example, if an athlete finishes in 12th position in Round 2 they will be allocated a 12th place overall finish and awarded 7 points for the Eliminator format. Any athlete who fails to complete round 1 will receive zero (0) points. Any athlete who qualifies for round 2 or round 3 but does not complete the respective round will receive the last place finish position, and corresponding points allocation, in that round. Where multiple athletes do not finish the same round, the position on course at which the athlete withdraws will determine their relative finish position to the other DNF athletes, with the athlete who has completed more distance of the course allocated a finish position above DNF athletes who have completed less distance of the course.
