Difficulty breakdown: This 17.8 km HC climb has a very uneven profile. The main difficulty lies in the first three km (8% and 12%) and the last four km (7% to 12%), separated by a long, almost flat section of nearly 8 km (KM 4.0 to 11.0). This alternation between steep pitches and forced recovery makes pacing tricky.
Pacing advice:
1. Start controlled: Don't go out too hard. Climb the first km at 12% at your threshold pace to avoid blowing up right from the bottom.
2. Active recovery: Use the flat middle section (KM 4-11) to bring your heart rate down, eat and drink without losing too much time.
3. Save something for the finale: Tackle the last 4 km, which get progressively harder, with something left in the tank. The final 800m at 12% will require residual power.
