About Blue Race

Blue Race is the 15.0km trail race at Bobija Trail 2025 (Bobija, Serbia). The race starts on August 16, 2025.

Race strategy

Run the downhill at race pace, but focus on the climb.

  • 462m descent. Go easy, save your quads.
  • Steep 39% wall. Control your pace and stay focused.
  • Go easy on the first downhill, save your quads on the descents until 7.2km, then run your race pace.
  • Start · 0.0km–1.8km · Race-day nerves push your heart rate up: don't follow the crowd, find your own rhythm.
  • Settle in · 1.8km–7.2km · Descent of 462m averaging 6%. Ease in: hold back more than feels necessary. The race is still ahead. This descent is hard on the legs: short steps, stay in control, poles if you have them.
  • Home · 7.2km–14.6km · Climb of 547m, high point 1262m. Build to the finish: leave whatever you have left out on the course. Climb by heart rate or breathing, not pace. Hike the steepest pitches.

Course

By gradient, 33% of the distance is uphill, 54% downhill and 13% flat. The longest climb runs 7.4km at an average 7.4% grade (547m of vertical).

Surface: 37% road, 30% smooth, 22% technical, and 10% trail. Flat-equivalent effort: 17.9 FlatKM.

Summits

Poles

Poles bring little benefit here: only about 1.8km of pole-friendly terrain.

Quad damage

Quad damage risk is low (index 9 of 100): a few descents worth noting, none of them decisive.

  • Go easy on the first downhill, save your quads on the descents until 7.2km, then run your race pace.
  • #1 · 0.0–7.2 km · 462 m D−, -6.4% · 7.4 km ahead → control
