Countdown
May
A backyard ultra on flat, forgiving forest ground: run one 4.2-mile yard every hour, then go again, until only one runner is left standing.
Key facts
01Be in the start pen on the hour, every hour. Miss a start and it's a DNF.
02Each yard is two 2.08-mile loops, so you run the same ground repeatedly.
03Under 12s can't enter. Ages 12 to 15 need a parent or guardian to arrange the place and attend.
