Mental Game.
If someone can ride for 12 -16 hours and then get up the next day and do the same, it doesn’t matter if you cover 150km, 200km or 300km per day you can physically probably complete a race like RttR.
After the first two days it becomes more of a mental game. The ability to get up, Rinse and Repeat. The hours alone with your thoughts and doubts and just the sheer enormity of the road and task ahead is more of a challenge than the physical. The body will go through good patches and bad but after 4 or 5 days you slip into a routine so it’s the gremlins in your head you have to fight with the most.
Often the battle is more Mental than Physical. More people probably pull out because they have a mental lapse, or mechanical issue than a physical breakdown.
