Elevation profile

0 ft net

233 ft up and 198 ft down across the 25K.

Pressure point

Altitude adjustment

Even a modest rise can feel bigger if you are not acclimated, so keep the early effort calmer than sea-level pace.

Weather bias

Wet-course risk

Rain shows up often enough to plan for slick footing and a damp start.
