Break rule for long runs

since some people on discord showed interest in running some of the longer categories like lvl 1-80 i thought it might be a good idea to add a system that allows runners to take short breaks during long runs. this is the system i came up with with:

  • for runs longer than 3 hours runners are allowed to stop the timer for up to 15 minutes to take a break.
  • you are not allowed to take any action that affects your run while the timer is paused.
  • you are not allowed to take more than 1 break for every 2 hours in the run. (ex. if the run is 6 hours you are allowed to take max. 3 breaks.)
  • you are allowed to take the breaks at any time you want, there does not have to be 2 hours in between the breaks.
  • if you do not know how long the run will be i recommend taking the breaks after the hour thresholds have been reached.
  • runs that are close to the 2 hour marks will be rounded up or down by max 15 minutes in relation to the amount of breaks. (ex. 5h45m-6h15m runs will count as 6 hour runs.)
  • breaks that are more than a few seconds longer than 15 minutes will result in the run being rejected.

please let me know your thoughts and/or feedback.
