Official event pageWhat this race demands
This 120-kilometer walking event demands exceptional endurance and continuous locomotion over a very long distance.
Extreme Distance
Covering 120 kilometers requires sustained forward motion and physical resilience far beyond standard endurance events.
Musculoskeletal Durability
The repetitive impact of walking over such an extended duration places significant stress on the joints, lower limbs, and feet.
Pacing Control
Athletes must maintain a disciplined and steady pace from the start in Onomichi to manage fatigue across the entire journey.
Given the extended duration of a 120 km walk, athletes should consume 30 to 60 grams of carbohydrates per hour to maintain energy levels throughout the event.
