From IOF site:
The new type event series will be called the World Cup, as this is already a well established and recognized name. There are, however, several differences between the current and the future World Cup. In the past, events have been specially created for the World Cup while, in future, the World Cup will be part of already existing events. The new World Cup series will also include fewer events than the current model, the aim of which is to facilitate the runners' planning. Equally, the number of World Cup events in one round is planned to be only one or two, while at present a round contains quite a big number of events stretching over many days.
World Cup is dead... long live World Cup

Thinking back to the first ever UK World Cup race in the Trossachs in 1988(?), which was a single race combined with the Scottish Champs if my memory is correct, it seems the World Cup has now gone full circle.
