H+P THIS MAY BE LOOPY ULTRA

The ultra squad on this team needs another challenge.....SO HERE IT IS!

The concept is simple:

PHASE 1: 6 hours

• Run 8K every hour for 6 hours (Starting at 7AM, finishing at 1PM)
• You can start at anytime throughout that hour, but you must finish by the end of the hour.
• You cannot begin BEFORE the hour- no banking distance!

PHASE 2: The Race

If you completed the 6 hours, good for you- that is a major accomplishment! But, if you want to go for the win, move on to this next level of the event.

• The distance is still 8K, but now the amount of time you have to finish it is decreasing as follows:
• 8K #1: Starts at 1:00PM, must be done by 1:50PM
• 8K #2: Starts at 1:50PM, must be done by 2:35PM
• 8K #3: Starts at 2:35PM, must be done by 3:15PM
• 8K #4: Starts at 3:15PM, must be done by 4:00PM (recovery- you're welcome)
• 8K #5: Starts at 4:00PM, must be done by 4:40PM
• FINAL 8K- If anybody made it this far- the first person to finish wins!

*Yes we will print this schedule off for you!

WHEN?

Saturday, May 4th is the OFFICIAL event with your teammates!

Anytime from April 1st-May 31st is ok for completion.

LOCATION:

We're using our classic 4K loop HERE for the official event.

If you want to do this on your own loop on a different day the rules are:

- It must be the same 8K loop for the entire event.

- You must post every loop attempt on Strava.

- It must be approved by Coach Sean beforehand and must be (1) safe and (2) more challenging than the official loop.

- You must abide by the same 7AM start time regardless of what day you do it.

PRIZES:

Anybody who finishes the 6-hour gets a pair of H+P Sunglasses and some social media props.

The top three in the race event (if there even IS three?) will get a grand prize TBA (it totally won't be worth it).

That's it- best of luck to everybody who decides to take on this epic challenge!
