Between a UTMB® Index of 500 and 800, the estimated finish time on this race runs from 6h04 to 3h45. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 | 6h04 | — | 364 g | 4.2 L | 3,033 mg | +2h56 |
| 550 | 5h31 | — | 331 g | 3.9 L | 2,758 mg | +3h29 |

| 800 | 3h45 | — | 225 g | 2.6 L | 1,875 mg | +5h15 |
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.
