⛰️

Save energy for the hills

With 1,400m of climbing, start conservatively. Attack the flats, ease into uphills, and use downhills to recover.

Respect the heat

At 22°C, add 1-2 minutes per km to your goal pace. Hit every water station. Pour water over your head and wrists.

Nothing new on race day

Test everything in training: shoes, socks, nutrition, hydration. Race day is not the time for experiments.
