Each lap must be finished within the hour to stay in the event. If you finish early, you rest until the next round. Miss a lap, and you\u2019re out.<\/p>\n<p>Complete all six rounds, and you OUTLAST.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#39;t just about speed \u2014 it&#39;s about pacing, discipline, and mental grit. Whether you&#39;re trying to survive all six or win your division, the challenge is the same: show up each hour, push your limits, and stay in it.<\/p>\n<p>Each course is trail-based, with natural terrain, elevation, and unpredictable conditions. You\u2019ll have time between rounds to recover, refuel, and refocus \u2014 but not much.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>What You Earn:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u200b4 laps = \u201cGrit Earned\u201d patch<br \/>5 laps = \u201cSurvivor\u201d patch<br \/>6 laps = Premium \u201cOUTLAST\u201d medal<\/p>\n<p>\u200b\u200bAll participants receive a premium OUTLAST Tee.<\/p>\n<p>Top male and female with the fastest combined 5K times at each event win the 1st Place OUTLAST award.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Finishers are ranked on the world leaderboard\u2014and the fastest runner across all OUTLAST 6-hour events (including the Championship) will be crowned World Champion and take home a cash prize of $1,000.<\/p>\n<p>The top 5 Male and Female 6-hour champions from each city will earn a spot in the Outlast World Championship in DFW December 4 2027, where they\u2019ll compete against the best of the best at the end of the Tour, and the 1st-3rd place male and female winners of the Championship take home a cash prize, listed below.
