Official event pageWhat this race demands
This 110-kilometer mountain trail race demands exceptional climbing endurance and sustained structural durability to manage 6,250 meters of elevation change across extreme high-altitude terrain.
Climbing and descending volume
Covering 6,250 meters of elevation gain across 110 kilometers requires continuous muscular engagement to efficiently hike steep ascents and absorb high-impact forces on long descents.
High-altitude tolerance
Reaching Teide National Park places significant physiological stress on the cardiovascular system due to the reduced oxygen availability at high elevations.
Extended muscular durability
The ultra-distance format subjects the lower limbs to prolonged eccentric loading, demanding robust structural resilience to maintain forward progress over many hours.
A sustained effort of this duration requires consistent carbohydrate intake of 60 to 90 grams per hour to maintain energy availability and support metabolic stability.
Estimated finish times
