Each individual competitor drinks four cups of 5oz. of Egg Nog and runs four laps, on the track (start – Egg Nog, then lap (1), then Egg Nog, then lap (2), then Egg Nog, then lap (3), then Egg Nog, then lap (4) - finish).
Egg Nog must be consumed before the lap is begun within the transition area which will be a 10 meter zone (marked with cones) before the start/finish line on the 400m track.
The race begins with the drinking of the first cup of Egg Nog behind the start line and competitors must cross the finish line to ensure a full mile is completed.
Competitors must drink the full 5oz. of Egg Nog before starting each of their laps. There will be an official at the Egg Nog cup station will be in charge of ensuring the contents of the cup has been drunk in a fair manner.
Competitors must flip cup upside down before leaving transition zone to insure all of the eggnog has been consumed.
Competitors who vomit/up-chuck/toss ‘cookies’ before they finish the race must complete one penalty lap at the end of the race (immediately after the completion of their 4th lap).
Note: *Vomiting more than once during the race still requires only one penalty lap at the end*
