Format and race details
The race uses a backyard ultra format. Runners have one hour to complete each loop of 4.167 miles and must be at the start line ready to begin the next hourly loop. Any runner not finished within the hourly time limit and ready to start again is disqualified. The event continues hour by hour until a single runner remains; that runner must complete a final solo loop within the time limit to be declared the winner. All other competitors will be recorded as DNF and will receive a medal. Competitors still in the race after 24 hours will receive a Rocket Events 100 mile medal. Runners may use a gazebo, shelter, or aid station at the start/finish area; this is included in the entry fee.
