Between a UTMB® Index of 500 and 800, the estimated finish time on this race runs from 6h08 to 3h58. 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 | Cut-off margin |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 | 6h08 | — | 368 g | 4.3 L | 3,067 mg | +3h52 |
| 550 | 5h43 | — | 343 g | 4 L | 2,858 mg | +4h17 |
| 600 | 5h18 | — | 318 g | 3.7 L | 2,650 mg | +4h42 |
| 650 | 5h04 | — | 304 g | 3.5 L | 2,533 mg | +4h56 |
| 700 | 4h29 | — | 269 g | 3.1 L | 2,242 mg | +5h31 |
| 750 | 4h10 | — | 250 g | 2.9 L | 2,083 mg | +5h50 |
| 800 | 3h58 | — | 238 g | 2.8 L | 1,983 mg | +6h02 |
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.
