Race strategy

Short race: go all out.

  • Hold your race pace up to 6.6km, but stay in control.
  • Control your HR on the first mountain, and go all out on the final descent from 6.6km.
  • Start · 0.0km–1.8km · Race-day nerves push your heart rate up: don't follow the crowd, find your own rhythm.
  • Work · 1.8km–6.6km · Climb of 541m, high point 1076m. This is where the race is built: steady, solid effort. Climb by heart rate or breathing, not pace.
  • Home · 6.6km–12.6km · Descent of 495m averaging 8%. Kick for the line: give it everything you've got.
