What this race demands

The Brabantse Ultra Trail 100 km requires sustained forward locomotion over flat terrain across the Groote Heide nature reserve in June.

Ultra Distance

Covering 100 kilometers demands exceptional aerobic endurance, metabolic efficiency, and musculoskeletal resilience to withstand hours of continuous impact.

Minimal Elevation

With only 190 meters of elevation gain across the entire route, the course requires maintaining a steady running rhythm without the forced breaks of steep climbs.

Summer Heat

A late June date in the Netherlands brings warm conditions, requiring disciplined hydration and cooling management over an extended duration.

A continuous intake of 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour is necessary to sustain energy levels across the estimated duration.
