# Checkpoints, cutoffs and rest

Under “About” you find every checkpoint on the course: when the runner passed, when they are expected, and how much time they have before each cutoff.

## Read the checkpoint list

- “Passed” and a time: the runner was recorded there. “Passed · GPS” means their position showed them passing.
- “Likely passed”: by our estimate they have passed, but nothing has been recorded.
- “At the checkpoint”: they are there right now.
- “Expected” and a time in amber: our estimate of when they arrive.
- A place like “P12” with ▲ or ▼: their place at that checkpoint and how many places they gained or lost.

## What do the cutoff lines mean?

“Cutoff” is the latest time the organiser allows at that checkpoint, and “out by” is when the runner must have left it. The margin next to it is measured once they have passed, and marked with ~ in amber when it is our estimate.

When the margin gets thin, a line under the finish estimate says how far ahead of or behind the cutoff pace the runner is.

> Cutoff times are set by the organiser. Estimated arrivals are ours.

## “Resting at …”

When the runner has been still for a while during the race, a card under the map says where they rest, since when and for how long. At a checkpoint with a closing time it also says when they must be out.

Rests out on the course are listed too, as “Rest out on the course”.

## Life bases, drop bags and aid stations

Each checkpoint shows its kind, such as a life base, a drop bag, an aid station or water. The summary on top says how far it is to the next life base or drop bag.

## Print the runner's plan

If the runner has made a plan, “Print the plan” gives a page with every checkpoint, planned arrival, departure and cutoff. Handy for crew.
