What this race demands

Jangsu Trail Race demands sustained climbing strength and high-output durability across 38.7 kilometers of mountainous terrain with 2,435 meters of elevation gain.

Climbing volume

Accumulating 2,435 meters of elevation gain over a 38.7 km distance requires significant vertical climbing capability and muscular endurance in the legs.

Mountain durability

Traversing the mountain trails, forests, and valleys of Jangsu places prolonged eccentric loading on the lower body, demanding solid structural resilience.

Given a duration well exceeding 2.5 hours, athletes should target 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour to maintain energy output throughout the race.
