Difficulty breakdown: This 25.3 km HC climb is genuinely hard, with 1865m of total elevation gain and several brutal sections. The main challenge comes from the four kilometres at 10% (the opening stretch, km 8-9 and the final ramp) and the 9% section right after a short descent (km 21). The easier parts (km 3-5, km 18-20) give you valuable recovery time.
Tips for managing your effort:
1. Pacing the start: The first kilometre at 10% means you need to settle into a sustainable effort right away, or you'll blow up your heart rate before you've got going.
2. Making the most of the flatter bits: Use the lower-gradient sections (km 3-5, km 19-20) to recover actively, keeping a steady rhythm without going into the red.
3. Saving something for the finale: Hold something back for the last few kilometres, especially the 10% ramp at km 24 just before the finish.
