About Velika trka

Race strategy

Short race: go all out.

  • Hold your race pace up to 6.5km, but stay in control.
  • Control your HR on the first mountain, save your quads on the way down from it until 4.5km, then run your race pace, and go all out on the final descent from 6.5km.
  • Start · 0.0km–0.9km · Race-day nerves push your heart rate up: don't follow the crowd, find your own rhythm.
  • Work · 0.9km–6.5km · Descent of 263m averaging 7%, high point 331m. Plus 2 more climbs. This is where the race is built: steady, solid effort. Climb by heart rate or breathing, not pace. This descent is hard on the legs: short steps, stay in control, poles if you have them.
  • Home · 6.5km–11.1km · Descent of 283m averaging 6%. Kick for the line: give it everything you've got.

By gradient, 48% of the distance is uphill, 43% downhill and 9% flat. The longest climb runs 2.0km at an average 7.8% grade (157m of vertical).

Poles

The course is runnable enough that trekking poles are not needed.

Quad damage

Quad damage risk is low (index 10 of 100): a few descents worth noting, none of them decisive.

  • Control your HR on the first mountain, save your quads on the way down from it until 4.5km, then run your race pace, and go all out on the final descent from 6.5km.
  • #1 · 0.9–4.5 km · 263 m D−, -7.4% · 6.6 km ahead → control
  • 6.5–11.1 km · 283 m D−, -6.1% · 0.0 km ahead → free
