Event details

what the figures mean

Location: Bornheim, Germany
Hourly loop: 6.706 km
Format: Every runner starts together, on the full hour. The loop is 6700 metres and must be completed within the hour; whoever is not standing on the start line when the next hour begins is out. There is no finish line and no distance to cover, only the next loop. The race ends when one runner completes a loop that nobody else does. That runner is the last soul.
