Training

Make sure you do plenty of hill training , as there is significant elevation gain.

- Take a good supply of isotonic drinks with you, to ensure you keep fully hydrated during the stages.

- Consider brining some type of recovery drink for after each stage, which will replace salt loss. This can increase in such humid climates.

- Feet are likely to swell due to the distances covered and the heat. Consider bringing footwear two sizes bigger than normal.

- Bring adequate foot care and repair kit with you.
