Fuelling, hydration & pacing for ultras

Get your fuel, salts and pace right, all the way to the line.

Sub24 plans your carbs, fluid, sodium and caffeine hour by hour, paces you over every climb and descent (not just the flat bits), and keeps your aid stations, drop bags and crew in sync. Chasing a sub-24 finish is one goal it can help with, mostly it just gets you to the line in one piece.

Pace the real route

Ultra Scotland 100

165 km4,392 m climb1 night out

Every climb and descent modelled from the real GPX, with a pace for each leg and your aid stations and crew points marked. The gold-to-indigo line is the sun: sub24 knows exactly where 100 miles runs into the night and back out into the dawn, paces for the dark hours, and tells your crew when to have the head torches ready. Hover the line to read it off.

Not just for the mountain goats.

half marathonmarathonflat 50kcanal 100k

First marathon? Pancake-flat 50k? A half you actually want to fuel properly for once? Skip the GPX entirely: tell the simple builder your distance and rough pace and it hands you a clean hour-by-hour eating and drinking plan in about a minute. No checkpoints, no elevation homework, no PhD in sports nutrition. The deep route tools will be waiting when the mountains start calling.
