Starting around 9.15, I packed 2 litres of water and some sandwiches with little idea of what would be open due to covid-19. The route is well sign posted with the White over Red markings at regular intervals throughout. First supply options were at Pavon (it was particularly humid so I grabbed another litre of water here) and another cafe at a village not much further ahead. All in all it was a fantastic day out, the route is well suited to technical runners and I wouldn't be surprised to see someone go sub-5 on it. If you were to do it in reverse unsupported, you'd be looking at a later start due to the 10.30am first bus to Vallehermoso. There's a Spar in both Vallehermoso and San Sebastian for supplies.
