Tips for pacing yourself:
1. Hold back on the 5% opening (km 0.0-0.5) Settle into a steady rhythm from the first few hundred metres, and don't let the excitement pull you along too fast. You'll need those reserves later.
2. Recover on the easier stretches (km 0.5-1.0 and km 2.5-3.0) Use the 2% and 1% sections to drink, take on food and get your cadence back up without wasting energy.
3. Tackle the 9% wall (km 3.5-4.5) in a small gear Stay seated, keep a smooth, spinning cadence and avoid mashing the pedals, so your legs still have something left for the final 5% and 6% kilometres.
