What the course asks

13:51 min/km average. Generous. Walkable throughout for most of the field. Climbing is unpublished, so this pace is a ceiling on the effort, not a measure of it. More forgiving than 67% of 50K races. Measured against 1007 races of the same distance. Cut-off calculator →
Field size ~30 Small. Long stretches with nobody in sight.
