problem
There are equally spaced points on a circular track of circumference . The points are labeled in some order, each label used once. Initially, Bunbun the Bunny begins at . She hops along from to , then from to , until she reaches , after which she hops back to . When hopping from to , she always hops along the shorter of the two arcs of ; if is a diameter of , she moves along either semicircle.
Determine the maximal possible sum of the lengths of the arcs which Bunbun traveled, over all possible labellings of the points.

Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
There are 2022 equally spaced points on a circular track γ of circumference 2022. The points are labeled A₁,A₂,…,A₂₀₂₂ in some order, each label used once. Initially, Bunbun the Bunny begins at A₁. She hops along γ from A₁ to A₂, then from A₂ to A₃, until she reaches A₂₀₂₂, after which she hops back to A₁. When hopping from P to Q, she always hops along the shorter of the two arcs (PQ)^ of γ; if (PQ)¯ is a diameter of γ, she moves along either semicircle. Determine the maximal possible sum of the lengths of the 2022 arcs which Bunbun traveled, over all possible labellings of the 2022 points. [i]Kevin Cong[/i]
Original LaTeX notation
There are $2022$ equally spaced points on a circular track $\gamma$ of circumference $2022$. The points are labeled $A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_{2022}$ in some order, each label used once. Initially, Bunbun the Bunny begins at $A_1$. She hops along $\gamma$ from $A_1$ to $A_2$, then from $A_2$ to $A_3$, until she reaches $A_{2022}$, after which she hops back to $A_1$. When hopping from $P$ to $Q$, she always hops along the shorter of the two arcs $\widehat{PQ}$ of $\gamma$; if $\overline{PQ}$ is a diameter of $\gamma$, she moves along either semicircle.
Determine the maximal possible sum of the lengths of the $2022$ arcs which Bunbun traveled, over all possible labellings of the $2022$ points.
