Race briefing
45K course41 km · 2161 m gain · 3 aid stations
- The organiser lists 45 km; the published GPX measures 40.9 km. The course notes use the GPX for route shape and the aid-station table for climbing.
- Start 07:00, sunrise 07:48: the first 48 minutes are run in the dark. The headtorch goes on your head at the start, not in your pack.
- Sunset is 18:00, 11 hours after the gun. If your target time is longer than that, carry a headtorch whether or not the rules demand one.
- The file measures 40.9 km against the advertised 45 km, so expect your watch to disagree with the signs.
The organiser's GPX file has no elevation data, so the grade profile and kilometre analysis cannot be shown for this course; the climb figure is the one the organiser advertises.
Aid stations
- The longest stretch between official aid stations runs from CP3 (km 33) to Finish (km 45): 12 km. Top up at CP3 and size what you carry to the expected duration and your own drinking rate.

|---|---|---|
| CP1 | 18 | 18 |
| CP2 | 22 | 4.5 |

17K course18 km · 1295 m gain · 55% uphill
- Steep climb (10%+)
- Climb (3-10%)
- Flat
- Descent
- Steep descent (12%+)
The published GPX measures 18 km with 1295 m of climbing, 73 m per km. The course sits between -137 m and 760 m of altitude. 57% of the gain sits in the first half.
The race climbs from the gun: 57 m over the first 1.5 km. Do not chase the crowd, the two minutes you win here get taken back with interest.
The backbone of the course runs from km 1 to km 13: net 891 m over 13 km at 7% average, its steepest roughly 250 m section averaging 24%, 1222 m of climbing in total with 331 m given back. Heaviest kilometres: km 5 170 m, km 13 140 m, km 12 139 m, km 7 132 m. This is hiking terrain, not running terrain. Walk it with intent and keep your heart rate off the ceiling.
The longest descent starts at km 13 and loses 327 m by km 18 at 8% average, its steepest roughly 250 m section averaging 19%. Its length can load the quads, so begin under control and build rhythm only when the ground and visibility allow it.
The last 2.1 km drop 110 m. If anything is left in your legs, spend it here.
- The organiser lists 17 km; the published GPX measures 17.7 km. The technical course notes use the published GPX measurement.
- This course reaches 760 m. At the high-point coordinate, the same week historically ran 9°C to 15°C. Typical daily maximum wind was 14 km/h, reaching 28 km/h in the sample. This is climate history, not the race-day forecast; keep the shell accessible if race week looks similar.
- Start 07:00, sunrise 07:48: the first 48 minutes are run in the dark. The headtorch goes on your head at the start, not in your pack.
- Sunset is 18:00, 11 hours after the gun. If your target time is longer than that, carry a headtorch whether or not the rules demand one.
- Poles are strongly recommended for this profile. The course averages 73 m of gain per km and the longest climb averaging over 5% runs 13 km; if you have trained with them and the organiser allows them, use them on the climbs and stow them on runnable ground.
- Point to point: the finish sits 10.6 km from the start as the crow flies. Sort the shuttle and your drop bag before race day.

- Flat
The published GPX measures 8.6 km with 62 m of climbing, 7 m per km.
The first 1.5 km are close to flat, good for settling in. Do not set your pace here, the real course starts after.
The last 2 km are close to flat. Plan your finishing pace around that, there is nothing left to save.
- The organiser lists 8 km; the published GPX measures 8.6 km. The technical course notes use the published GPX measurement.
- Sunset is 18:00, 2 hours 30 minutes after the gun. If your target time is longer than that, carry a headtorch whether or not the rules demand one.
- Out and back: you turn at km 4.3 and return the same way. Note how easy the outward leg felt, you pay for it in reverse.
- Km 4.6 to 8.6 is the same ground you covered at km 4; note your pace on the first pass and use it as the yardstick on the second.
