What this race demands

The adidas Stockholm Marathon demands sustained aerobic endurance and muscular resilience over the standard 42.2 km distance.

Aerobic Capacity

Running 42.2 km requires a highly developed aerobic system to maintain an efficient pace over several hours.

Muscular Durability

The repetitive impact and prolonged duration place significant mechanical stress on the lower limbs, requiring strong structural resilience.

Athletes should aim for 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour to sustain energy levels throughout the duration of the marathon.
