We are nearing the middle of the race and it is still wide open. Anyone can take the prize money at this stage, so plan carefully. a mistake now could cost you dearly.
Check out the results from round two
Runners, you need to tell me:
- How fast you intend to run – a number from 1-15 (you can use decimal places if you like e.g. 5.5)
- How many hours you intend to run for – a number from 1-2 (you can use a decimal for partial hours e.g. 1.5)
- How many energy gels you will consume – a number from 0 – however many gels you have (whole numbers only)
- If you want to rest, how long you intend to rest (in hours) – a number from 1-2
Runners have until 10am tomorrow New Zealand time, to tell me their choices. Anyone not replying in the next 24 hours will be classed as DNF (Did Not Finish).

Are you new to Steemit and trying to figure out what it's all about?
Head over to: https://www.steemithelp.net/. It's the best place to get a handle on what the platform is all about.
I have two questions: Can you eat energy gels only when you are running, but not when resting? And for the last round I rested for 1 hour, what happens with the second hour?
You can eat energy gels at any time. 1 gel gives you 1 extra km for that turn. (it costs you a little in terms of health damage though)
You can use up to 2 hours worth of time. So if you rest for 1 hour, the other hour does't get used.
This was more useful when i had it set up so you could rest AND run in a single turn. But I've stopped doing that because it just gets really confusing really fast when I do the calculations.
So if you're going to rest it would make sense to rest for 2 hours ;-)
Ok. Thank you for making this clear :D I didn't get this from the instructions. About the gels, this means I can't really use gels if I am only resting, right?
speed = 5
gels = 3

You get a gel every time you pass a aid station
hey, you didn't give me your numbers for this round!
