Who can beat them?
Once a participant does not finish a lap within the cut-off time limit, they get access to join other runners, who have reached their limit, in the “finisher cheering zone” right next to the finish line. There, they support the remaining runners to reach their personal record by cheering every round and get inspiration for which Pace Race Level they want to aim for next time. Everyone feels this energy and will probably get two or three kilometers more out of themselves than they think is possible.
What are the Pace Race Finals?
Anyone who finishes an official Pace Race event with a Pace Race level of 17.0 or higher for men or 13.0 or higher for women qualifies for the Pace Race Finals, where the best compete at the end of the season. The winner of the Pace Race Finals will be the Pace Race Champions of their respective season.
