The shape of the race

How the field thinned.

Runners still out there at the start of each hour. The hour never changed. That is what breaks people.

The climbing

They climbed Everest twice over.

No runner matches that.

Laps equal hours: one lap of the 3.2 km circuit every hour, on the hour. The timing sheet records no finishing position, only who was cut off and who stopped, so position here is ranked on laps completed and runners on the same lap count share a position. Distance is laps multiplied by the circuit length. Source: official timing sheet supplied by the organisers, cross-checked against DUV event 113799.
