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
There is no official elevation gain information for the bike course provided by event organizers. The Strava sample range revealed elevation gain between 258 and 2172 meters. There are three significant outliers. Garmin fenix 6X, Garmin Edge 830 and Garmin fenix 6S Pro recorded 1928 meters, 258 meters and 2172 meters of elevation gain. All three results will be excluded from mean calculation
So, the average elevation gain for the bike course is 940 meters.
Run Course Elevation / Meters
There is no official elevation gain information for the run course provided by event organizers. The Strava sample range revealed elevations between 44 and 867 meters. There are two devices that clearly stands out and recorded a lot of elevation gain for run course. Garmin fenix 6X and Garmin fenix 6S Pro recorded 867 meters and 425 meters of elevation gain respectively. As both results are clearly outliers – these will be excluded from mean calculation.
The average elevation gain for the run course is 69 meters.
