Bike course and Run Course Elevation Review
Okay, as always – time to review elevation gain data after the race. I wanted to know more than just who won, so I did a deep dive on Strava.
As always – randomly picked 20 athletes who did the race and stalked their profiles (don’t judge, we all do it). I wanted to see the course elevation, what kind of gear they used, basically get inside their heads a bit. To equally represent all athletes – I’ve selected 10 male and 10 female athletes across most of the age groups.
Bike Course Elevation / Meters
Official elevation gain information for the bike course provided by event organizers is 2550 meters. The Strava sample range revealed elevation gain between 2418 and 3288 meters. There are no significant outliers – all gathered results are scattered across tight range and will be included in mean calculation
So, the average elevation gain for the bike course is 2702 meters.
Run Course Elevation / Meters
Official elevation gain information for the run course provided by event organizers is 228 meters The Strava sample range revealed elevations between 0 and 438 meters. Two results for the run stands out on both sides of the range – Coros Pace 2 device recorded 0 meters of elevation gain and Garmin Forerunner 935 recorded 438 meters of elevation gain. Both results will be excluded from mean calculation.
The average elevation gain for the run course is 244 meters.
