Differences and information still uncertain
These items are shown explicitly so an approximation is never presented as official data.
The PDF's internal metadata title mentions 2025, but the guide's content explicitly states 2026, Sunday 30 August 2026 and operations specific to 2026.
The map visually distinguishes some Powerade and GU stations without publishing a station-by-station text table; only water, common to the Drink Stations, is recorded as confirmed.
The Drink Stations distances are chainages derived from the official GPX using the coordinates on the official map; the organiser does not publish their distance markers as a table.
