Official event pageWhat this race demands
The Kidney March demands sustained endurance across three consecutive days of walking over a 100-kilometre distance from Kananaskis to Calgary.
Multi-Day Endurance
Covering 100 kilometres over three consecutive days requires significant physical resilience, pacing, and the ability to recover rapidly overnight for the following day's effort.
Extended Walking Capacity
As a continuous multi-day walking event, athletes must possess the musculoskeletal durability to manage repetitive impact and prolonged time on feet without structural breakdown.
Given the multi-hour duration of each daily stage, athletes should consume 30 to 60 grams of carbohydrates per hour alongside adequate hydration to maintain energy levels.
