Wow what a fantastic event! =P
Summer Solstice Relay is coming June 22nd.
Solstice Relay gives runners the unique chance to team up with your friends against the setting sun
今年的夏至接力將會在6/22日展開
擊敗日落在夏天及冬天的接力賽讓大家可以一邊追逐夕陽一邊同樂，更凝聚了跑者間的喜好。
Solstice Relay is held by Beat The Sunset twice annually on the longest and shortest days of the year. The idea was thought up by local ultra-runners in 2017. The first event was just between friends but has since exploded into popularity, gaining support from Runivore, Taiwan Beast Runners and Pabst Blue Ribbon. Today, the fastest runners from all over Taiwan join together to compete against themselves and the setting sun, with most of the money collected used to support local charities like Mary's Doggies, Brightside Projects, and Wildlife Conservation Society.
擊敗日落在一年最長及最短的一天分別舉辦了夏至及冬至接力。這個點子是由一名旅居在外的美國籍越野跑者Cory 在2017年創辦。一開始只是喜愛跑步的三兩好友群聚比較自己在日落前能跑出多少公里，後來透過Runivore, 台灣跑山獸及 Pabst Blue Ribbon所支持而擴大。直到今天，來自台灣各地的頂尖跑者會在一年的這兩天群聚與夕陽競速，比賽最後透過大家的努力與支持，大部分的收入也回饋給在地慈善機構包含Mary's Doggie，嚮光協會及Wildlife Conservation Society。
這場比賽規則很簡單，在中午到日落前，能完成最多次賽道圈數(一圈5公里)的隊伍獲勝。沿途賽道涵蓋了多樣的風景及地形，比起平地更能保護跑者的腳踝避免過度平緩地勢產生的疲勞(心理上及生理上)。今年夏天則會在山佳火車站附近的GTANK露營區展開。想一起帶親朋好友後援會的朋友們，可以以優惠的價格向大會申請場地。報名註冊皆採先搶先贏，營地可以在報名時一同選取。GTANK露營區也提供了多項輪板遊戲體驗，適合大人小朋友一起同樂。
The game is simple: see how many laps your team can complete on a 5k park loop between noon and sunset. The course always involves beautiful scenery and is never completely flat, helping runners prevent injuries and fatigue (mental and physical) caused by hard concrete running. This summer's course is held in Shanjia in partnership with GTANK Campground. Runners who wish to pack a tent and provide support for their teams can do so and stay overnight for a special discounted price. Registration for sites is first come first serve, and can be purchased during registration. GTANK also has facilities for families who come to support runners, including bubble soccer, go-kart racing and skateboarding in their own skatepark.
今年，擊敗日落更推出了日出到日落的比賽，單人跑者可以從日出5點挑戰到黃昏6點45分，看自己可以完成多少圈。
This year, Beat The Sunset also includes a Sunrise to Sunset race, where single runners without a team can battle the longest day of the year starting at 5:00 A.M. as the sun is rising, seeing how many laps they can complete until sunset at 6:45 P.M.
兩人組及四人組則在稍晚12點出發，與隊友輪流接力，當交出接力棒給隊友時，則可以待在場內休息與其他來自各地的跑友互動。飲品及零食都是全天供應，午餐則是素食外燴。記得帶上自己的餐具，擊敗日落向來訴求節能減碳環保愛地球，所以也在此呼籲大家一起響應。
Teams of 2 or 4 join them later, beginning their race at 12:00 and alternate, taking turns running relay-style, handing off the baton to their partner and taking a rest while they are out running. While you wait, socialize with other runners from all over the world in a friendly, approachable atmosphere. Food and drinks are provided, as well as catered meals. Runners must remember to bring their own cutlery and bowls, as Beat The Sunset strives to uphold a standard of eco-friendliness. No disposable materials are used for this event.
報名費為每人1000元，日出到日落的單人跑者則是1800元 ，選手物資包含比賽汗衫，完賽獎牌，東飲西方的進口手工啤酒，個人保險，中餐，以及給慈善機構的捐款。
Registration is just $1000 per runner for noon until sunset or $1800 for sunrise to sunset. Included with your registration pack is performance running singlet, magnetic bottle opener medal, imported craft beer from East Drinks West, insurance, meals all day and a donation to local charities.
當然今年也不例外Mary's Doggies會帶狗狗來一起支持大家陪跑。跑累的話，他們是很好的精神夥伴喔!
Also at the event will be Mary's Doggies, the local dog shelter helping stray animals in Taiwan. When you get tired, you can borrow a shelter dog to help you keep going.
