Register at Zwift Power
This is the race results system and we rely on it heavily; if you're not registered there, we likely can't count your race results
KNOW YOUR ZWIFT ID
Surprisingly not the easiest thing to find but there are a few simple ways
Go to your Zwift Power Profile -> string of 4-9 digits at the end of the URL is your ID
Go to your Zwift Power Profile -> Settings -> ID is right there
On the ZP results page of ANY event, hover your cursor over your name and the string of 4-9 numbers at the end is your ID
Same trick on ZRA site
No easy way to find it in your Zwift Companion App
