Pacing advice:
1. Ease into it. Don't get carried away in the first 500 metres at 7%, and make the most of the relative respite between 1.0 and 2.0 km to recover and settle into your rhythm.
2. Stay steady between 2.0 and 5.0 km. Over these 3 km at 6-7%, keep a smooth cadence and a constant effort, without surges, so you still have legs left when you reach the foot of the steepest part.
3. Save something for the finale. Between 5.5 and 6.3 km, at 12%, shift into an easier gear, keep your cadence high and seated if you can, and empty the tank over the last hectometres.
