Overview
Run in Apulo, Colombia, the 55-kilometer Copa Tequendama Trail Electrolit packed 2571 meters of elevation gain into its fixed route, averaging 46.7 meters of climb per kilometer. That density of climbing required consistent effort over sustained ascents, though the 12-hour time limit offered breathing room on the trails.
The resulting cut-off pace of 13.1 minutes per kilometer was more generous than 61% of 50k events and tighter than 39%, giving runners extra leeway across the mountain terrain compared to many distance peers. In its 2025 edition, 40 finishers completed the challenge—a turnout bigger than 52% of 50k fields and smaller than 47%.
