Endurance load on ITRA's km-effort scale — not steepness or technical terrain.
How we measure
km-effort = distance + climb/100, ITRA's published scale: every 100 m of climb counts like ~1 km of distance. Six levels, Easy → Brutal, from the hardest distance of the event. The climb figure (m/km) shows how vertical the course is.Drive

Our take
The catch · Our read
night navigation + point-to-point means you must sort transport back to the start; 01:00 cutoff is generous but the "no extrema" framing hides technical descents run in the dark
Who it's for · Our read
for runners who like night races and coastal singletrack; not for first-timers uneasy on technical ground in a headtorch, or anyone without a return-transport plan
Also nice · Our read
21:00 headtorch mass start from a town square, sea breeze, 30 min of climbing into the dark
In a word · Our read
a Maresme night-trail classic — think a coastal "por la noche" race; harder than its 21 km looks once you add darkness
