Experience the challenge of a backyard ultra on a 6.7km loop, designed to be completed hourly. Each lap begins with the ringing of a cowbell, marking the start of a new hour. Competitors must finish their lap before the time runs out, or their race ends there. This unique variation keeps athletes pushing their limits, as only completed laps count toward their final tally, with speed on the last lap determining champions when ties occur. The continuous format offers a true test of endurance, especially in the 24-hour event. Participants must remain vigilant, waiting for the cowbell before starting each new lap; finishing in 40 minutes or less means time still ticks away until the hour ends. Fail to meet the cutoff, and it’s a DNF. This race embodies both camaraderie and competition, pushing runners to strive for their best in a thrilling atmosphere.
