Rules

In every episode of Run For Time, four hunters are sent out to capture seventeen guest stars (or escapees). For every second the escapees survive, they gain 50 in-game credits, which will accumulate over the first eight episodes for the finals (ninth episode). If the escapees are caught by the hunters, they will be eliminated and are permitted to keep only 1/10 of their credits for that particular round. Meanwhile, they have to complete certain tasks thrown to them in a given time frame while hiding from the hunters. If the escapees finds a "refuge", they can choose to sign out and leave with the credits they have. If the escapees survive the whole course of 90 minutes, they will be handsomely rewarded with 270,000 credits.

The hunters cannot have any sort of communication with the escapees. They can only sprint when they see an escapee, and they cannot determine the escapee's location by looking for the cameramen.
