Skate individually or with a 4 person team.
—-MEALS—–
There will be 3 catered meals provided for riders. Lunch, Dinner and breakfast the next morning. This will be simple meals that will not provide nowhere near the calories you will burn. Bring additional food and snacks for yourself. You will not make it 24 hours on these three meals. A good rule of thumb to follow is 300 calories of food and
32 ounces of water consumed per hour.
—-WATER—–
Water cooler will be provided for you to fill your own bottle or Camelbak. It’s up to you to bring electrolyte drinks or additives. . Energy drinks do not work for Ultra-Skates. Please do not drink them. Those ignoring this might find out why.
—-RACE—-
0700 – Check in/Registration- Event T-sh*ts, Meal bracelet and an ankle bracelet-timing chip will be given. (Timing chip has to be returned after Race) If you don’t wear it your laps won’t count. Don’t remove it on a break, forget it and then skate uncounted laps. They will not add the laps to the system.
0900 – Riders meeting and race start.
—–COURSE ETIQUETTE! —–
1. If you’re out on the track skating, you’re wearing a helmet. NO EXCEPTIONS
2. Only full completed laps count. If you are in the middle of a lap and time expires, your lap is not counted.
3. Support crew can ride with you around the course and hand you food and water at anytime during the event. Please stay out of the way of other riders.
4. Please keep the track clean. There are trashcans on pit road. If we are badass enough to skate for 24 hours then we can hold our trash for 1.46 miles. We are guests here at Homestead Speedway, lets be respectful. NO ALCOHOL OR GLASS CONTAINERS on the course where we skate.
5. Treat the Ultra-skate as personal quest more than a race. You will go though a lot during a 24-hour period. This event will challenge you physically and emotionally. This event can be as intense as you make it. We all have our milestones that we are trying to reach. Many really want to test themselves but please, listen to your body and skate within you ability. Your health is the top priority here. Let’s enjoy our time with friends, old and new. Distance skaters bring the best vibes so I know this will be an amazing experience for all.
