    I think the one litre water rule just means that you need to carry containers that can carry 1 litre of water. I don't know of anyone who actually ran with 1 litre of reserve water and then their normal use water on top of that.

    the two times I have started it has been with a 500ml bottle and no water, they seemed to think that was ok

    The kit list had some odd English translations when I did this race:
    - Casquette was translated into 'helmet' (it should be 'cap')
    - Collants became 'stickers' (should have been 'tights/leggings')
    - Auto bandes adhesives turned into 'elastic bands' (actually it's 'sticking plasters')

    Thanks, I was actual planning to carry a 'dead' litre for the whole way , and yesterday on the long run I was thinking how I could change the weight of the water by carbonising it and other crazy stuff that in the cold light of day you should never share
