Race strategy

Short race: go all out.

  • Steep 27% wall. Control your pace and stay focused.
  • Hold your race pace up to 3.5km, but stay in control.
  • Control your HR on the first mountain, and go all out on the final descent from 3.5km.
  • Start · 0.0km–1.9km · Race-day nerves push your heart rate up: don't follow the crowd, find your own rhythm.
  • Work · 1.9km–3.5km · Climb of 484m, high point 459m. This is where the race is built: steady, solid effort. Climb by heart rate or breathing, not pace. Hike the steepest pitches.
  • Home · 3.5km–7.4km · Descent of 449m averaging 12%. Kick for the line: give it everything you've got.
