Competitors are allowed to take a five-minute break every hour to eat, drink or do whatever else is necessary. No one is allowed to lean on the car for support. Winners need to be able to show great powers of attention. They also need to be able to develop special skills.

　　Maybe the popularity of the handathon is due to the fact that it is not necessary to be a trained athlete to enter. Entrants in the Longview handathon certainly don’t seem to do much preparation. Most say they will prepare by “getting lots of sleep” . Others say they will “eat healthy food” or “pray for success” . The whole event gives ordinary people the chance to do something interesting and win something in the end.

　　Handathons are competitions, but there is little rivalry(竞争)between competitors. They help each other out and keep each other’s spirits up. People who drop out early return with food, drink and encouragement. (360W)
