Another New Racing Format

99 Laps:

99 Laps is a relentless elimination race on a 1.2 km loop. Every 15 minutes, a new lap begins, and the last athlete to finish is eliminated. With 99 eliminations and only one winner, the pressure builds lap after lap. Live timing and a real-time leaderboard keep the intensity high until the very end.

A more “managable” backyard style format that has a fixed ending and focus on more competition rather than collaboration. And another event pushing supplements. Fascinating developments from “that side” of the trail running world and a somewhat polar opposite approach to the idea that people love races because of the places where they are held. This one hasn’t even announced where it’ll be:

The location is still a secret but it will be visually iconic.

So they say.
