2 The Jungle Ultra
The Jungle Ultra is an extreme five-day running event in the Amazon. It is one of the most difficult ultra-marathons in the
world.
Athletes start the race in Cloud Forest in Peru. They run through the forest in temperatures of 40°C, and they also climb over
hills. There is often heavy rain, so the ground can be wet. In some places it’s very dark, and it’s difficult for the athletes to
see the dangerous animals, such as snakes and spiders, around them. Worst of all, athletes must cross 70 rivers along the
route. Man-eating reptiles live in some of these rivers, so the journey across is very dangerous.
Participants must maintain their energy during the race. They should eat well, but they can’t carry large quantities of food.
What do the runners eat during the race? Rice, bananas and oranges can give the runners energy. Energy bars are also a
good idea and are easy to carry. The runners must carry a bottle of water, and they should drink often.
The Jungle Ultra is an amazing experience, but most people can’t imagine participating in this very difficult and dangerous
race
