What this race demands

The Christus Rex Pilgrimage requires participants to cover 90 kilometers of walking over three consecutive days from Ballarat to Bendigo.

Multi-day endurance

Spanning three days of continuous walking, the event demands significant physical and mental resilience to recover and perform day after day.

High-volume stamina

Covering a total distance of 90 km requires sustained cardiovascular endurance and musculoskeletal durability over extended hours on foot.

Given the multi-day nature with extended hours of daily effort, athletes should consume 30 to 60 grams of carbohydrates per hour during walking segments to sustain energy levels.
