Event Format
The event is a Last Man Standing race with a unique format. Unlike a traditional backyard ultra, participants do not have one hour to complete each loop. Instead, each successive loop must be completed one minute faster than the previous loop. The goal is to run faster as the race progresses.
Course Details
Each loop is 4.167 miles long. Participants must complete each loop within a decreasing time limit. For example:
- Loop 1 has a 1-hour cutoff.
- Loop 2 has a 59-minute cutoff.
- Loop 3 has a 58-minute cutoff.
