1. Control the start: don't get carried away in the first kilometres at 8% and then 12%. Stay within your threshold so you still have legs left for what comes after.
2. Make the most of the breather: between km 3.5 and 4.5 (2% then 5%), and on the short descent from km 4.5 to 5.0 (-2%), recover, drink, and get your breath back.
3. Save something for the end: in the last 3 km, with gradients between 6% and 10% (including 10% between km 6.5 and 7.0), pace yourself and save your last reserves for the final push.
