Edgar Degas

Multirun, fixed 25 km total, as many runs as needed inside the dates. Scoring follows the mechanic — best total time on the distance once work is verified (detail in the Rulebook).

Clock (UTC). The race is open UTC from 00:00 on 8 August through 23:59 on 22 August. Only runs published to Degas in that span count; how the twenty-five kilometres split across days is up to the entrant, within format and verification rules.

After the period ends. 22 August closes the live phase; official standings follow later. A gap of a few days before Results out is normal; heavier fields can take longer while verification clears. Provisional order can move until the race is Results out.

Twenty-five kilometres in two weeks: less room than a full-month multirun to drift or recover a slow start. The kilometres still divide however you prefer — steady accumulation or fewer, longer runs — but the dates do not forgive indefinite delays.

August is already in motion when this race opens: Harbor owns the month, Buenos Aires underpins the quarter, .ascent is deep into its ladder, and Eclipse can cut the middle of the calendar without long notice. The twenty-five kilometres land inside that stack, not on an empty field.

• Early vs late — Clear the distance while the dates are still wide open, or push volume toward the back end and accept a thinner recovery lane if something slips.

• Many short runs vs fewer long ones — Tracking friction and fatigue trade against flexibility.

• Enter vs stay out — A defined 25 km obligation with proof, or no line on this race. The Art line runs Monet–Degas–Cézanne; skipping the middle chapter is a choice that registers.

A completed 25 km multirun is a clean line on the board: finished or not, inside the UTC dates or not. Two weeks — late entry still works if the kilometres fit before 23:59 on 22 August UTC, but procrastination has less margin than in longer multiruns.

At Results out, the race locks; until then, provisional standings may still move.
