Da Rules

-All stations selected will be open tube stations in either zone 1 or 2

-Each individual/team will receive two envelopes labelled “1” and “2” at the starting station

-The clock starts as soon as envelope “1” is opened

-Contained within envelope “1” will be the names of eight tube stations (including the starting station of Oval). You may visit these stations in any order you wish by either arriving and/or departing on a tube train

-You may open envelope “2” as soon as you have arrived at the eighth station on the list you have visited. Envelope “2” will contain the names of seven tube stations. You may visit these stations in any order you wish by either arriving and/or departing on a tube train.

-If any of the stations from envelope “1” have been missed because of suspension of service, emergency repairs etc. then provided all other stations have been visited then envelope “2” may be opened

-The clock stops when your foot touches your final station platform

-If your eighth station you visit in envelope “1” is a pass-through you may open envelope “2” while travelling through the pass-through station

-If any stations are repeated in both envelope “1” and envelope “2” you will have to arrive/depart them again

-If a station in envelope “2” is where you are at the moment of opening envelope “2”, you will not have to visit this station again. (i.e. your eighth station is Charing Cross from envelope “1”, you open envelope “2” and Charing Cross is repeated on the envelope “2” list)

-This challenge also has a 5 hour time limit. Therefore, at 5 hours the next selected station will be your last one
