This race is set up as a last man standing backyard ultra. To compete, you must complete the course's 4 mile loop every hour on the hour.
There will be a rucking division this year as well! The same rules apply to each rucker, who will have an hour to complete a 2.4 mile loop.
This race began as a vision within the free men's workout group called F3. F3's mission is to plant, grow, and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership. Withing F3 there are things called CSAUP events, (Crazy, Stupid and Utterly Pointless). The Last H.I.M Standing was created out of this. To be a HIM, is to be a "High Impact Man" within the community, organization, and household. To be the last one standing is a testament to your mental attributes, physical capabilities, and belief in yourself.
Rules:
- Beginning at 0600 and every hour on the hour thereafter, athletes must depart from the start line onto the course
- All athletes are allotted 60 minutes to complete the 4-mile course
Though the course will be marked with signs at each turn, it is ultimately the athlete's own responsibility for knowing the course, a route map will be provided prior to launch.
- Failure to start on the hour, or finish the lap prior to the beginning of a new lap will result in a DNF
- Athletes must travel by manpower on foot while competing on the course.
- In hours of low visibility, athletes are required to have one or more of the following: headlamp, reflective gear, flashy lights
- Rain or shine, as long as an athlete is willing to compete in the event and meets the criteria, the race will continue (unless conditions become too extreme that is)
- each athlete is responsible for providing anything they may need while at this race including but not limited to nutrition, hydration, running/ safety gear, recovery items, shade/shelter, etc.
