SaintéSprint: 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 2h25 to 1h45, and the aid-station stop budget from 0h03 to 0h01. The longer the race, the more stops weigh: this is time you should plan to spend standing still, not only running.
| UTMB® Index | Estimated time | Of which stops | Night hours | Carbs | Fluid | Sodium | Cut-off margin |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 | 2h25 | 0h03 | 2.4 | 145 g | 1.7 L | 1,207 mg | +15h05 |
| 550 | 2h17 | 0h03 | 2.3 | 137 g | 1.6 L | 1,139 mg | +15h13 |
| 600 | 2h09 | 0h02 | 2.2 | 129 g | 1.5 L | 1,075 mg | +15h21 |
| 650 | 2h03 | 0h02 | 2.1 | 123 g | 1.4 L | 1,022 mg | +15h27 |
| 700 | 1h57 | 0h02 | 2 | 117 g | 1.4 L | 974 mg | +15h33 |
| 750 | 1h51 | 0h01 | 1.9 | 111 g | 1.3 L | 925 mg | +15h39 |
| 800 | 1h45 | 0h01 | 1.8 | 105 g | 1.2 L | 879 mg | +15h45 |
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.
