About La Dourbie Formi

Race strategy

Hold a steady pace and save energy for every section.

  • Steep 30% wall. Control your pace and stay focused.
  • All downhill to the finish: go all out!
  • Control your HR on the first mountain, then run your race pace, and go all out on the final descent from 20.4km.
  • Start · 0.0km–2.2km · Race-day nerves push your heart rate up: don't follow the crowd, find your own rhythm.
  • Settle in · 2.2km–12.8km · Descent of 364m averaging 7%, high point 762m. Plus 1 more climb. Ease in: hold back more than feels necessary. The race is still ahead. Climb by heart rate or breathing, not pace.
  • Work · 12.8km–20.4km · Plus 2 more climbs and 1 descent. This is where the race is built: steady, solid effort. Climb by heart rate or breathing, not pace. Hike the steepest pitches.
  • Home · 20.4km–22.6km · Descent of 342m averaging 16%. Build to the finish: leave whatever you have left out on the course.
