What this race demands
This full marathon demands sustained aerobic capacity and structural durability to cover the 42.2 km distance without the benefit of known elevation profiles. Athletes must manage their pacing carefully over the full distance.
Aerobic endurance
Covering the full 42.2 km marathon distance requires a highly developed aerobic energy system and efficient pacing to sustain effort over several hours.
Structural durability
Running continuously for over four decades of kilometers places repetitive impact stress on the joints and musculature, demanding robust physical preparation.
Thermoregulation
The race takes place in Aracaju, Brazil, requiring athletes to manage heat and hydration demands effectively throughout the effort.
A carbohydrate intake of 60 to 90 grams per hour is recommended to sustain energy levels across the expected marathon duration.
