Pro tips

    Rolling Course Climb

    The marathon profile is rolling with 160 m of total climb. Pace the gentle ups and downs by effort, not by a fixed pace, and let the downhills flow.

    Mild but Warming

    Typical race-day temperature is 21.2°C, so it's mild. Start at a steady effort and save energy for when the sun warms the later miles.
