Aero efficiency
The 226.3 km total distance requires maintaining an efficient aerodynamic position over many hours on the bike course through Carinthia.
Pacing discipline
With an elevation gain of 1825 m spread across the course, athletes must manage their energy output carefully during the swim, bike, and run to avoid late-race fatigue.
