Mandatory Equipment
For the 100k, 65k, 42k, 35k, and 21k distances, the use of a hydration system (hydration pack, hydration belt, or hydration bottle) is mandatory, as the organizers will not provide disposable cups at the hydration stations.

Runners in the 100K, 65K, and 35K distances must wear a functional headlamp with charged batteries. Failure to do so under the conditions described will result in disqualification.
What kind of weather will we have at Marcona Wind Trail?
The weather in the area is quite changeable, so you may experience heavy fog as well as intense sun. Consider packing everything you need for conditions both in your hydration pack.
What should I be careful about in this race?
The greatest risk of improper running technique in this race is suffering from heatstroke, dehydration, and hypoglycemia. Consider preventing these three problems through proper training that adapts you to this type of terrain and teaches your body how to regulate its temperature more efficiently.
What kind of clothing should I wear? Long or short clothes?
It depends on what makes you feel most comfortable, your tolerance to heat or sun. If the sun bothers you a lot, it's recommended to wear long clothing. If, on the other hand, you're more bothered by the heat, it's preferable to wear short, cool clothing, always remembering to use sunscreen even when it's not brightly sunny.
Can I bring a companion on the tour?
Yes, but you must be properly registered as a competitor. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in disqualification.
What should I do if I no longer wish to compete at some point in the race?
