About
A last‑man‑standing backyard ultra set on a 4.20‑mile loop. Runners must start each lap on the hour; the race continues until one runner remains.
Catering & aid stations
Hot and cold water, bananas, and a small selection of sweets and fruit available at an on-course aid station. A cafe (Cadence Cafe) operates nearby during the day for food and hot drinks.
Pacers
Pacemaker/Pacer: A pacer system is used. Targets are published per start wave on the Race Day (Renntag) schedule; Pacers display flags and will enforce lap pacing. All runners must collect a token at the second turnaround point and present it at race HQ on every lap—failure to produce a token results in disqualification.
