Rules of Engagement

    Know the Laws.

    5 kms. 4 Runners. 1 Clock.

    G.O.A.T. is not a standard road race—it is a strategic team battle.

    The Golden Rule

    Your PB is Irrelevant.

    In G.O.A.T., only the average time of all squad members matters because You're all running to prove you are the Greatest of All Teams.

    Race Protocol

    The Start Line

    No Entries Alone

    All squad members must be at the start line together before any round begins. For every round that requires more than 1 runner — if your squad isn't assembled, you don't start. Period.

    Don't Miss the Flag-Off!

    If your squad arrives after the flag-off has already happened — you're out. The clock doesn't wait. The race doesn't wait. Show up or step aside.

    Reporting Time is Non-negotiable

    All squad members must arrive as per the reporting time. Delays are not excuses — they're disqualifications waiting to happen.

    Strategy & Rotation

    The Tactical Play

    Strategising

    Between every round finish and the next round's start, your squad must strategise. Who runs, who rests, who goes all-out.

    Repeat Runners

    If your fastest weapon wants to go back-to-back — let them. But remember: fatigue is the enemy of averages.

    Timing & Leaderboard

    The Clock Doesn't Lie

    Average Time = Squad Time

    Only the average squad time dictates your rank on the leaderboard.

    Make the Cut or Go Home

    Squad members must cross the finish line fast enough to advance into the top ranks. The eliminations: Top 700, then 400, then 250, then 100.
