Save energy for the hills
With 580m of climbing, start conservatively. Attack the flats, ease into uphills, and use downhills to recover.

This is a smaller race. You may find yourself running alone at times. Bring your own nutrition and entertainment plan.
Nothing new on race day
Test everything in training: shoes, socks, nutrition, hydration. Race day is not the time for experiments.
