Who runs what

The rotation

Ragnar fixes the order: the loops cycle Green, Yellow, Red and every runner keeps their place, so runner 1 runs legs 1, 9 and 17. That is Relay Tracker's default running order for a team of 8 — no setup needed.

Ultra teams of four run six loops each, either one at a time (legs 1, 5, 9…) or two back to back (legs 1–2, 9–10, 17–18). Pick Classic or Doubled under the roster's running order. Short a runner? Keep every roster slot and hand the open slot's loops to teammates; Ragnar keeps the loop pattern the same.

Trail pace. Relay Tracker prices a trail loop about 10% slower than a road leg with the same climb by day and 20% slower at night — the gap measured against 2026 Ragnar Trail results — and each runner's prediction then adjusts to their real loop times.
