Guadalajara

Open: there is no prescribed total to close. Scoring follows the mechanic — maximum total distance published to the race once work is verified (detail in the Rulebook).

Clock (UTC). The race is open UTC from 00:00 on 1 October through 23:59 on 15 November. Only runs published to Guadalajara in that span count; how the kilometres build is up to the entrant, within format and verification rules.

After the period ends. 15 November 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.

No cap, from the first of October through mid-November. Kilometres still have to verify, and the table still ranks who logged the most. The dates do not wait for a late start to become a plan.

October opens on the same day as Quasar (50 km Multirun). Vermeer (Classic, 10 km) runs 8–21 October. Delta (Distance Ladder, 100 km) starts on the 10th and stays through 20 December. Skeleton occupies the last week of October. Thunderstorm covers the whole quarter. November brings Sparta (42 km) from the first and Wild West (21 km) from the 10th. Lisbon (100 km) opens the day after this race closes.

• Steady vs blocks — Regular kilometres, or wait for a clear patch and pile volume. Open rewards whichever pattern you can sustain until 15 November.

• How to live with the season — Quasar, Sparta, Delta and Thunderstorm ask for volume of their own. Taking them on does not pause this race.

• Enter vs stay out — A verified Open line, or no line on this race. It is the Urban collection’s mark on the board; skipping it is a choice that registers.

An Open total is a clean line: distance logged inside the UTC dates, or not. Late entry still works if the kilometres fit before 23:59 on 15 November UTC.

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