What this race demands
The Neusiedler See Marathon demands sustained aerobic endurance over a standard 42.2-kilometer running distance on an extremely flat profile.
Aerobic endurance
Covering the full 42.2-kilometer marathon distance requires a high level of cardiovascular capacity and sustained running efficiency.
Pacing consistency
The extremely flat course profile eliminates major climbing breaks, requiring the athlete to maintain a steady, uninterrupted muscular effort from start to finish.
Given the duration of a full marathon, athletes should target an intake of 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour to maintain glycogen stores and sustain performance.
