Odds for upcoming KMV

What are the odds?

K:- Probably the fittest of all, but to my knowledge never ran 1 kmv. Also suffering from running the Utra Trail des Aiguilles Rouges the weekend before with jet-lag and a dickey tummy.

G :- The only professional mountain person - walks up mountains for a living. Has a new pair of trainers and been training on the course. Avid ski mountaineer. Done the route in 1:09 in training. With competition and good shoes, he has to be up for a sub 1 hour.

L :-  Outsider, started getting fit at the beginning of summer  but has lapsed a little recently. Heaviest of the bunch at 90kg. With competition could easily drop 20 minutes of best training time so far. Putting him down in the 1 hour time frame.

C (me) :- 4 months after hospitalization, is getting back fitness but probably not there yet. A slow 1:08 and 6th from last the previous year. The extra competition and a better start position might help maintain that time. (Although some kind of muscular hip stretch from last weekend could cause a slow down)
