Chihuahua - Akáa 59K: times, aid-station stops and fuelling needs by UTMB® Index
Between a UTMB® Index of 500 and 800, the estimated finish time on this race runs from 9h33 to 5h56. These times include aid-station stops: they come from real durations between two timing points, and this race's timing does not measure stops separately.
Source| UTMB® Index | Estimated time | Night hours | Carbs | Fluid | Sodium | Cut-off margin |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 | 9h33 | 2 | 573 g | 6.7 L | 4,775 mg | +3h57 |
| 550 | 8h51 | 2 | 531 g | 6.2 L | 4,425 mg | +4h39 |
| 600 | 8h07 | 2 | 487 g | 5.7 L | 4,058 mg | +5h23 |
| 650 | 7h26 | 2 | 446 g | 5.2 L | 3,717 mg | +6h04 |
| 700 | 6h51 | 2 | 411 g | 4.8 L | 3,425 mg | +6h39 |

| 800 | 5h56 | 2 | 356 g | 4.2 L | 2,967 mg | +7h34 |
Figures based on 60 g of carbohydrate, 700 mL of fluid and 500 mg of sodium per hour, "average" preparation and mild conditions (15–25 °C). Above 25 °C, count on roughly 900 mL/h and 700 mg/h. Carbohydrate intake is trained: 60 g/h is a floor, 90 g/h assumes a glucose-fructose blend and a gut used to it.
