The course and its aid stations
Leadville 100: 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 32h47 to 20h27, and the aid-station stop budget from 2h36 to 0h50. The longer the race, the more stops weigh: this is time you should plan to spend standing still, not only running.
SourceBelow a UTMB® Index of roughly 565, the overall cut-off of 30h00 is no longer reachable at the estimated pace.
| UTMB® Index | Estimated time | Of which stops | Night hours | Carbs | Fluid | Sodium | Cut-off margin |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 | 32h47 | 2h36 | 13 | 1,967 g | 23 L | 16,393 mg | −2h47 |
| 550 | 30h39 | 2h05 | 13 | 1,839 g | 21.5 L | 15,322 mg | −0h39 |
| 600 | 28h14 | 1h41 | 13 | 1,694 g | 19.8 L | 14,116 mg | +1h46 |
| 650 | 25h51 | 1h22 | 11.9 | 1,551 g | 18.1 L | 12,925 mg | +4h09 |
| 700 | 23h52 | 1h09 | 9.9 | 1,432 g | 16.7 L | 11,937 mg | +6h08 |
| 750 | 22h15 | 0h59 | 8.3 | 1,335 g | 15.6 L | 11,124 mg | +7h45 |
| 800 | 20h27 | 0h50 | 6.5 | 1,227 g | 14.3 L | 10,229 mg | +9h33 |
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.
