SWISS CANYON TRAIL - 31 KM: 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 3h50 to 2h18. 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.
| UTMB® Index | Estimated time | Night hours | Carbs | Fluid | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 | 3h50 | — | 230 g | 2.7 L | 1,917 mg |
| 550 | 3h31 | — | 211 g | 2.5 L | 1,758 mg |
| 600 | 3h14 | — | 194 g | 2.3 L | 1,617 mg |
| 650 | 2h50 | — | 170 g | 2 L | 1,417 mg |
| 700 | 2h40 | — | 160 g | 1.9 L | 1,333 mg |
| 750 | 2h28 | — | 148 g | 1.7 L | 1,233 mg |
| 800 | 2h18 | — | 138 g | 1.6 L | 1,150 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.
