Strategies
During the race, Czora should focus on pacing herself appropriately to maintain a consistent speed throughout. It may be beneficial for her to start with a slightly slower pace in order to conserve energy for the later segments where she tends to lose time. Additionally, she should ensure she is properly warmed up before each segment and take advantage of any opportunities for quick transitions to minimize time spent in the roxzone.
