What this race demands

Long-distance endurance

Late-stage fatigue resistance
As the final day of a multi-day alpine holiday, athletes must manage accumulated muscular and systemic fatigue to finish the crossing.
A sustained intake of 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour is required to support energy balance over a multi-hour alpine stage exceeding four hours of riding.
