What this race demands

This 50-kilometer night walk requires maintaining a steady locomotion pace for roughly twelve hours through Berlin. Athletes must sustain their effort and manage nutrition throughout an overnight duration.

Extended Endurance

Covering 50 kilometers over a 12-hour duration requires continuous physical output and deep muscular and aerobic stamina.

Overnight Management
