Official event pageWhat this race demands
This 21.4-kilometer trail run requires sustained climbing and high leg durability to manage 1,458 meters of elevation gain.
Climbing volume
Accumulating 1,458 meters of gain over a 21.4-kilometer distance demands continuous ascending strength and power application on steep inclines.
Muscular durability
Navigating the reported stairs and technical terrain requires strong eccentric leg strength to protect the quadriceps and maintain posture over the duration.
A target of 45 to 60 grams of carbohydrates per hour is recommended to sustain energy output for the duration of this effort.
