What the course asks
Time limit 8.5 hours
10:12 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 Climbing is unpublished, so this pace is a ceiling on the effort, not a measure of it. Tighter than 77% of 50K races. Measured against 982 races of the same distance. Cut-off calculator →
Field size ~75 Mid-sized. Company early, well spread out by halfway.
DUV results for the 2026 edition (50km) — finishers only. Starters are not published, so the field was at least this big and no finish rate can be given.
