Pacing tips:
1. Start controlled: Don't go out too hard on the opening 200m at 14%. Settle into a steady rhythm to avoid blowing up early.
2. Save your legs for KM 0.4-0.6: Shift down a gear before the 18% wall. This is the crux of the climb.
3. Active recovery: Use the 7-8% sections (KM 0.8-1.6) to get your breathing back under control before the easier final part.
