About the site and planned updates

The ranking list was initially created as an aid to the Swedish OCR Association to select athletes for the international championships. Later, the Finns, Norwegians, and Danes wanted to do the same, and the prospect of an international ranking list was born. If you represent an OCR association and wish to have your nation represented, or have any questions about the list, write to ranking@ocrrunner.com. If you are an athlete who would think it would be awesome to be part of the ranking list, urge your national association to talk to us!

Planned updates:
A new calculation algorithm was introduced late 2023 after extensive analysis. After the 2024 season we will review the set parameters, especially since we have added a large amount of international runners. This review may result in a recalculation of scores, but it won't result in any drastic changes.

The International OCR Ranking site is developed and managed by fellow OCR athletes Daniel Evaldsson and Lucas Gardebrand through the company ***** AB.
