What this race demands

This 140.7 km gravel championship demands sustained output across 3713 meters of climbing over an extended distance.

Climbing volume

Over 3713 meters of elevation gain across 140.7 km requires consistent power production on ascents and strong descending skills.

Muscular endurance

The combination of high climbing volume and gravel terrain demands significant upper and lower body durability to absorb impacts over many hours.

Pacing discipline

An event of this length requires strict energy management early in the race to prevent fatigue during the later climbing sections.

A race duration exceeding four hours requires a consistent carbohydrate intake of 60 to 90 grams per hour to maintain glycogen stores and performance.
