Official event pageWhat this race demands
The ARBÖ Kärnten Radmarathon demands sustained climbing capacity and tactical pacing across 2530 meters of elevation gain over a 106-kilometer alpine route.
Climbing volume
Accumulating 2530 meters of elevation across 106 kilometers requires consistent power output on long ascents through the Nockberge biosphere reserve.
Segment pacing
Because timing is exclusively measured across select mountain ascents, athletes must manage their energy to perform during specific climbing efforts rather than riding at a flat, steady pace.
Given the duration likely exceeds three and a half hours for most participants, athletes should target 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour to sustain output across the demanding mountain ascents.
