About 5th Station Course

5th Station Course is the trail race at Fuji Mountain Race 2027 (Japan). The race starts on July 23, 2027.

Race strategy

Start easy, build your effort, and go all out at the finish.

  • Control your HR on the first climb.
  • Start · 0.0km–2.3km · Race-day nerves push your heart rate up: don't follow the crowd, find your own rhythm.
  • Home · 2.3km–14.8km · Climb of 1470m, high point 2244m. Build to the finish: leave whatever you have left out on the course. Climb by heart rate or breathing, not pace.

Course

By gradient, 92% of the distance is uphill, 0% downhill and 8% flat. The longest climb runs 14.8km at an average 9.9% grade (1470m of vertical). The steepest climb averages 25.5% over 0.5km.

Poles

Trekking poles are worth taking: about 3.9km of the course favours them.

Quad damage

There is too little runnable descent to damage the quads: plan the race around climbing and fuelling.
