Official event pageWhat this race demands
The Yugawara 100 demands continuous forward progression over a 100 km walking distance crossing Kanagawa Prefecture from Yugawara to Motosumi.
Ultra-Distance Endurance
Covering 100 kilometers entirely on foot requires exceptional aerobic capacity and structural durability to sustain movement over many hours.
Musculoskeletal Resilience
The repetitive impact of walking over this ultra-distance places immense cumulative load on the lower limbs, feet, and postural stabilizers.
Given the extended duration of a 100 km walk, athletes should consume 30 to 60 grams of carbohydrates per hour to maintain energy levels and prevent glycogen depletion.
