RACE FORMAT & CATEGORIES
Solo category: Test your true grit by challenging yourself to complete as many laps as possible over 6, 12, or 24 hours. Set your distance goals and aim for the finisher medals below:
13 laps = Marathon | 15 laps = 50Km | 24 laps = 50 miles 30 laps = 100Km | 48 laps = 160Km/100 miles*
Runners completing at least 48 laps will earn one sweet 100mile belt buckle.
An additional Top Male, Top Female and Top Non-Binary Medal will be awarded to the respective runner with most laps completed in the 6, 12 and 24 hour events.
Relay Teams: There are no limits to runners / team, nor will there be gender categories. The same rules apply (no more than 1 team member on the course), and we will still award the overall top 3 teams with the most laps. We will also have finisher medals for all relay runners, as well as additional category awards for relay teams...so it's not all about who can cover the most laps! More details will be available soon.
Each relay runner will pay their own entry fee as they sign up.
Youth 4Hr Solo: You have 4 hours to run as much or as little as you'd like. You will follow the same course as everyone else and have access to the aid station snacks in between laps (provided you're continuing on). Youth will receive a finisher medal, and will have results visible on a leaderboard.
