“July water in the river makes no noise.”

The option for the month of July has to do with our inspirations and aspirations. To be on the level of one of the most extreme races in the world, we need a very important external factor: heat. In the Badwater the heat easily reaches 50 degrees in California’s Death Valley. On BR135+ the percentages of humidity in the air, in Minas Gerais, can reach 90% and the heat rise to 40º. Or even surpass it!

In the PT 281+ Ultramarathon Portugal, we will be between the two. During the month of July, in the places where the race passes, the thermometers easily pass 40º in a dry, suffocating, burning heat. This is a factor that easily puts the PT 281+ Ultramarathon Portugal at a level of extreme difficulty.
