   Net downhill pacing

   The course is net downhill and winds through tree-lined streets, so resist sprinting early; let the grade help you while keeping effort steady.

In Mississauga

• Getting around

  Mississauga is spread out and car-oriented, so use public transit, rideshare, or drop-offs on race day instead of driving between points.

• Spectator spots

  Spectators can watch from the City Center area or head to Port Credit and the Lake Ontario waterfront for a lakeside view of the race.

• Recovering afterwards

  Recover with a gentle walk through Port Credit or along the waterfront parks, then explore Mississauga's mix of suburban and lakeside neighborhoods.
