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 100 meters. The Strava sample range revealed elevation gain between 13 and 386 meters. It is a tricky situation to calculate average elevation for the bike course. Garmin bike computers usually record slightly lower elevation gain for the course compared to sport watches. However in this case – some lowest and highest elevation gain results are recorded by Garmin Edge bike computers. Also, when actual elevation profile for the bike course is very flat – even 100 meters variation can look extremely significant. Therefore, for Eagleman 70.3 bike course, all results will be included in mean calculation
So, the average elevation gain for the bike course is 152 meters. This result isn’t that far from officially declared bike course elevation gain.
Run Course Elevation / Meters
Official elevation gain information for the run course provided by event organizers is 100 meters. The Strava sample range revealed elevations between 33 and 99 meters. There are no significant outliers as we observed in bike course elevation gain results, therefore all results will be included in mean calculation.
The average elevation gain for the run course is 49 meters.
