Last One Standing – Congratulations John Gordon, John Brennan
John Gordon’s two medals
The Last One Standing 24 hrs event took place in Belfast at the weekend. It started at 12 noon Saturday. Runners had 1 hour to complete the first 4.2 mile loop and be at the start line ready to go again at 1pm, then again at 2pm and so on.
John Gordon with his two medals one for 100+ miles, one for actual race.
Any runner not finished inside the time limit and at the start ready to start again was disqualified.
This happened every hour until there is only one runner at the start line, this runner will be the last one standing.
This runner must complete a solo loop inside the time limit to be crowned the winner.
Organisers Atlas Running say “the race is not about being the fastest!
Pacing is everything!”
John Gordon says “71 starters at 12 noon Saturday, ran through the night into Sunday. John Brennan completed 24 hours to hit 100 miles. I completed 26 hours to complete 108 miles. 1 lap is 4.167 miles around Flordia Manor estate.
1 medal for completing 100+ miles and 1 medal for the actual race.
John Brennan ’12th last to finish’!
John Brennan was 12th last to finish I was 4th last to call it a day. All organised by Atlas Running .”
Congratulations to our two runners John Gordon and John Brennan who undertook this unique ultra challenge.
