Strategies

- Linus should focus on pacing himself throughout the race to ensure he maintains consistent energy levels. Starting too fast can lead to fatigue later in the race, while starting too slow can prevent him from reaching his full potential. Finding a steady pace and sticking to it can help optimize his performance.
- Linus should also pay attention to his transitions between exercise zones (roxzones). By improving his overall fitness and transitioning quickly between exercises, he can reduce time lost in these areas and potentially improve his overall race time.
- Prioritizing a well-rounded training program that incorporates both strength and running workouts can help Linus achieve a balanced and effective performance in future races. Varying his training routine with different types of exercises and workouts can help prevent plateaus and improve overall performance.
