Level Calculation

Career level in each league (RUN, SWIM) uses the same tier names (QLF through PRO-I) but is not raised or lowered by your URX Points balance. Rankings sort everyone by level block first, then by URX Points inside that block within the active league (Global ranking, URX Points allocation); level itself is decided from training and integrity signals the product publishes—verified activity volume, pace profile, Discipline, Accuracy, and additional checks that appear as you climb. Higher levels depend on more simultaneous factors, not one big number.

Division buckets in the League do not change level math (Division structure).

Pace and distance examples for RUN use min/km (or min/mi where the locale uses miles); for SWIM, min/100 m and pool or open-water distances as published—see Running and Swimming.

Level ladder (names)

The canonical levels (index 1…7) and labels URX ships in product:

Exact combinations of metrics and gates per index and league live in the app and may be recalibrated (Appendix A (A.1)).

Defense (holding a level)

Reaching a level is only half the job—you must defend it. Defense is the ongoing requirement to stay above the maintenance bars for your current tier. The higher you sit, the tighter defense tends to be: more inputs, less slack, faster decay if you disappear. That is by design—top slots are meant to be hard to hold.

Slipping below defense expectations is a normal path to downgrade alongside enforcement (Downgrade rules).

Promotion and downgrade on the ladder

Promotion arrives when you clear the next level’s published criteria across the relevant factors. Downgrade follows failed defense, enforcement, or structural rules (Downgrade rules). Both change access gates for races (Level-Based Access in Part III) and how you appear where level surfaces in rankings (Global ranking).

Enforcement can apply adjustments independent of training—Appendix A (A.3).
