Official event pageWhat this race demands
This four-day walking event requires covering a total distance of 160 kilometers across varied regional landscapes, demanding sustained endurance over multiple days.
Multi-day endurance
Completing four consecutive days of walking requires significant physical recovery capacity and consistent pacing to avoid cumulative fatigue.
Extended time on feet
Daily stages of 40 kilometers mean spending many consecutive hours moving at a walking pace, placing high mechanical stress on the lower limbs.
Given the extended duration of each daily stage exceeding several hours, athletes should maintain consistent carbohydrate intake of 30 to 60 grams per hour to sustain energy levels.
