While this normally is more of a practice mode, participating during the event period will earn Rally Tickets, whether you win or lose. Friendly Run can still only be played a limited number of times a day, and it requires at least one friend on your friend list.

While the full post is worth a read, a few of the highlights:
His final remarks on the End Credits are especially enlightening:
This song was made at the very end of our development cycle (as I’m sure most ending credits songs are), so I remember passing certification and listening to this song while stumbling home, looking at the stars, feeling almost like an empty shell of a person, reflecting on how everything had finally ended.

Posted on 8 years ago by Jake in Mobile | 2 Comments

You can race against specific friends and see how they’re doing at courses, and you don’t need Rally Tickets to play, nor will you lose (or gain) Toads. You can also only play Friendly Run a set number of times a day; If you haven’t cleared the first world, you can only play once a day. Clearing World 1 will allow you to play three times, and clearing World 2 will let you play five times. Run after the break to see the full notification from Nintendo:
