What this race demands
The NN CPC Loop Den Haag demands sustained running economy and pacing discipline over a fast, flat 21.1 km half marathon distance.
Speed Maintenance
The flat course profile requires athletes to hold an uninterrupted, high-cadence running pace without the recovery opportunities that hills provide.
Half Marathon Endurance
Covering the 21.1 km distance demands a robust aerobic base and efficient glycogen utilization to sustain forward momentum through the closing kilometers.
A target carbohydrate intake of 30 to 60 grams per hour is recommended to maintain blood glucose levels during the expected duration of the half marathon.
