Description

The Ultra Desert Pack – 4 Days – Performance – 10,800 kcal is specially designed for self-supported races in hot conditions, such as the Half Marathon des Sables (HMDS). This pack provides everything needed for 4 days of intense effort, with a total of 10,800 kcal (around 2,700 kcal per day on average).

Each day’s food comes in its own resealable bag, making it quick and easy to organise during the race. The pack has a net weight of 2.70 kg (6 lb), excluding packaging, optimised for the best weight-to-energy ratio.

The meals and snacks are planned around the different phases of the race:

  • Day 1: lunch and dinner
  • Day 2 (non-stop) and day 3 (rest day): breakfast, lunch and dinner
  • Day 4: breakfast and lunch

Please note: the pack does not include an evening meal when you arrive at the bivouac.

The meals have been chosen to be easy to digest and mildly spiced or unspiced, helping to limit digestive upset during prolonged exertion in hot conditions. Only the rest-day meals add a touch of more adventurous flavour, offering variety without compromising performance.

The pack also includes:

  • Breakfasts: muesli for energy, fibre and easy preparation. Some mornings also include an apple purée.
  • During the race: energy bars and drinks. Drinks should be hypotonic and highly diluted to help absorption in intense heat.
  • After the stage: recovery drink, cold-preparation tabbouleh and beef jerky (except on the final day)
  • In the evening: a hearty hot meal suited to cool nights (often below 10 °C / 50 °F), followed by an energy-rich dessert.

The Ultra Desert Pack – 4 Days – Performance offers:

  • Complete nutrition optimised for performance in self-supported events
  • An excellent weight-to-calorie ratio: 2.50 kg (5.5 lb) for 10,800 kcal
  • Easy-to-digest products suited to extreme desert conditions
