The course is at least 4.16 miles. Runners must be in the starting corral when the bell rings. Each loop starts exactly 1 hour after the last. No non-competitors on course. No artificial aids. Slower runners must allow faster ones to pass. If no runner can start one more loop than anyone else, there is no winner.
