Taking on a trail of around 12 hours? This Pack was made for you. Developed by a sports dietitian, it brings together a varied selection of products that are easy to digest and suited to very long efforts — where nutrition is no longer optional. Designed for trail runners discovering long-distance racing, this Pack gives you the keys to move forward with confidence, manage the unexpected, and fully enjoy your race from the first to the last kilometre.
Over a 12-hour effort, nutrition becomes a decisive factor. The body can no longer rely solely on its reserves: as carbohydrate availability decreases, it gradually shifts towards fat — a phenomenon known as the energy crossover. This shift leads to a drop in pace, increased perceived effort, and often the onset of digestive issues.
This Pack was designed to delay that critical moment. It offers an alternation of energy drinks, fruit pastilles, gummies, savoury purees, fruit compotes and gels, to maintain a regular intake of between 40 and 60 g of carbohydrates per hour — a key benchmark for a first trail of this duration. The varied textures help prevent flavour fatigue and allow you to adapt to how you feel in the moment, which is crucial when appetite fades and nausea may set in.
By structuring your hydration (sports drink + water) and your food intake every 40 to 45 minutes, this Pack helps you stabilise your energy, preserve your mental clarity and reduce the risk of digestive issues. It also supports the flexibility that is essential in an ultra: adapt, split, vary, and listen to how you feel.

Over such a long effort, the body can no longer rely solely on its reserves. Without a regular carbohydrate intake and appropriate hydration, an energy drop becomes inevitable, accompanied by mental fatigue and an increased risk of digestive issues.
