Pace your race with Abby, Iris and Dakota

SuuntoRun — 31 ottobre 2024

Suunto athletes Iris Bessey, Abby Hall, and Dakota Jones reveal their pacing strategies during the UTMB Mont Blanc in Chamonix.

Race tactics! How should you approach a trail race to get the best possible outcome? How do you pace a race right?

We turned to three of our ambassadors – Abby Hall, Iris Pessey, and Dakota Jones – to get their tips. They each ran different distances at the UTMB Mont Blanc this year: Iris flew through the MCC, Dakota tackled the CCC, and Abby took the UTMB by its horns.

In the video below, Iris, Abby and Dakota share their unique insights on balancing effort, conserving energy, and navigating the mental and physical challenges of ultra-distance racing. 

Abby uses her Suunto watch's Climb Guidance to pace climbs and descents evenly, while Dakota, a strong climber, pushes harder on uphills, saying, "Racing is about taking risks." Iris breaks her race into sections, allowing her to mentally reset along the way, finding motivation in in each checkpoint. 

Curious about how the pros pace themselves in tough trail races? Watch the video now to gain valuable tips on skill, strategy, and resilience that could make all the difference on your next trail race!
