SUFFERFEST: 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 34h06 to 21h31, and the aid-station stop budget from 2h49 to 0h53. The longer the race, the more stops weigh: this is time you should plan to spend standing still, not only running.
Source| UTMB® Index | Estimated time | Of which stops | Night hours | Carbs | Fluid | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 | 34h06 | 2h49 | 12 | 2,046 g | 23.9 L | 17,051 mg |
| 550 | 31h36 | 2h11 | 12 | 1,896 g | 22.1 L | 15,796 mg |
| 600 | 29h25 | 1h46 | 12 | 1,765 g | 20.6 L | 14,704 mg |
| 650 | 27h06 | 1h27 | 12 | 1,626 g | 19 L | 13,547 mg |
| 700 | 25h05 | 1h13 | 11.1 | 1,505 g | 17.6 L | 12,542 mg |

| 800 | 21h31 | 0h53 | 7.5 | 1,291 g | 15.1 L | 10,760 mg |
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.
