Race strategy

Short race: go all out.

  • Hold your race pace up to 5.0km, but stay in control.
  • Control your HR on the first mountain, and go all out on the final descent from 5.0km.
  • Start · 0.0km–2.2km · Race-day nerves push your heart rate up: don't follow the crowd, find your own rhythm.
  • Work · 2.2km–5.0km · Climb of 224m, high point 1011m. This is where the race is built: steady, solid effort. Climb by heart rate or breathing, not pace.
  • Home · 5.0km–11.1km · Descent of 254m averaging 4%. Kick for the line: give it everything you've got.
