4 x 4 x 48 OVERVIEW

This event starts with a 4 mile run at 4pm on Friday, June 21st (the day after summer solstice).

It continues 4 hours later with another 4 mile run at 8pm... Then again at 12am on Saturday, and continuing with 4 miles every 4 hours for 12 total runs (48 hours, totaling 48 miles). The final run starts at 12pm on Sunday, June 23rd.

Athletes can participate as an individual (performing all 12 runs themselves) or as a 2-person team (splitting the runs with another partner), or as a 4-person team (partitioning the runs amongst 4).

Teams can divvy up the runs amongst athletes however they'd like, but each participant must complete at least 1 full 4-mile lap.

This event will be a tremendous test of grit.
