Start with the foundations
Preparing for
hourly loops.
General preparation ideas, not a personalised training plan. Choose sessions that fit your current experience, and build up gradually.
Rehearse the reset.
In a manageable practice session, return to the same base, find your kit and rehearse what you will do before setting off again. Reduce last-minute searching.
Use familiar kit.
Practise with the shoes, socks and layers you plan to use. Test your base-camp layout and familiar food on suitable training days rather than introducing everything at the event.
Read the briefing.
Discuss your own goals with your crew, check the forecast and read the final event briefing. Do not assume facilities from a previous PWR event will be available.
Read the briefingMake the
rest count.
Your loop time shapes the break between starts. Move the slider to find your recovery window, then play through the hourly reset.
That break includes refuelling, sorting your kit and returning to the line. Try the practice session below to rehearse your own routine.

Make a practice session
Practise your
race routine.
Choose a part of race day to practise. Use the suggested routine with your coach or running group, keeping it within your current training.
Reset rehearsal
Practise getting ready for another loop.
- Choose a familiar, manageable route back to the same base.
- Lay out your kit before you start.
- Return, settle and rehearse your reset without rushing.
- Note what you would change before trying it again.
Keep the duration within your existing training. Finish the rehearsal if you need to; there is no minimum loop target.
