What this race demands
This event requires sustained endurance over a 50 kilometer walking distance within a 12-hour time limit. Athletes must maintain a steady forward progression across varied terrain including coastal paths and urban areas.
Continuous Endurance
Covering 50 kilometers entirely on foot demands a high level of aerobic conditioning and muscular stamina. The 12-hour cutoff requires consistent movement with minimal prolonged stationary rest.
Pacing Discipline
Sustaining a moderate walking pace for many hours requires strict self-management. Starting too fast leads to early muscular fatigue and an inability to finish within the permitted timeframe.
Given the extended duration likely exceeding five hours, athletes should consume 30 to 60 grams of carbohydrates per hour alongside adequate hydration to sustain energy levels.
Estimated finish times
