I completed this route starting on March 14, 2025, at around 9:40 PM from Gris-Gris Beach, the southernmost point of Mauritius.
Since there is only one water point along the route, I dropped off a 5-liter bottle after Pétrin (at the intersection of Chamouny Road and Mare Long Track at the 20th km). My second water resupply was another 5-liter bottle placed at kilometer 30 (just before the Verdun road section). My third resupply was in Port Louis at a small shop around kilometer 55. My last resupply was at a gas station shortly before the finish (around kilometer 75).
The finish at Cap Malheureux at 12:34 PM on Saturday was on small trails, with the sea offering a breathtaking view of the northern islands of Mauritius. A swim after 80 km was well deserved and truly enjoyable!
I initially wanted to do this route in an unsupported style, but carrying enough water would have been too difficult. The heat got the better of me in the last 10-15 kilometers.
