Event Description

One Lap Beyond is a 12-hour timed endurance event where participants choose between a 2 km or 4 km loop, starting a new lap at the top of every hour. Once a lap is completed, runners can rest, refuel and recover in the “rest barn” before heading back to the start line for the next hour.

The challenge is simple: complete as many hours as you can. Whether you’re aiming for a few steady laps or pushing all the way to the 12th hour finish, the format allows you to check out at any time, making it accessible for all levels.

With a supportive atmosphere and flexible structure, the event focuses on fun, fitness and personal challenge, rather than competition.
