Jasmin Paris has started the 5th and final lap, first woman ever to do so
Ihor Verys of Ukraine was the first one to start the last lap, after 46:06 hours, choosing to do so clockwise. John Kelly followed 15-20 minutes later, counter clockwise (the leader chooses, then it's CW - CCW - CW etc). Damian Hall and Greig Hamilton started their 5th lap barely 10 minutes later, Jasmin Paris also a bit later, just like Jared Campbell. Sebastien Raichon was the last one to enter the last lap, he started after 47:57 hours, three minutes before the cutoff time. He ran the last part of lap four wrong, so had to go back a while to correct it.
Apart from the first part, most of the last lap will be in daylight this time, that should help. Seems likely to have multiple finishers again, definitely helped by the good conditions (and not the usual rain and mud and everything). We'll see tonight
