What do I need to know?
Ridium's training read and the caveats before you trust the times.
Training read · Ridium AIThe 138 km route at Maratona dles Dolomites - Enel 2026 is a climbing-heavy road ride that combines significant cumulative elevation with sustained and steep ascents.
- Climbing
Train both sustained tempo climbing and short steep efforts, since the route's ascents reward riders who can change gears and effort comfortably across varied gradients.
- Endurance
Build long aerobic rides toward the 138 km distance with meaningful climbing in each, allowing roughly 24 weeks of progressive volume so late-route climbs are not done on empty.
- Pacing
Hold back on the early climbs and keep a sustainable effort, since over a long day with this much climbing, going too hard early makes the final ascents disproportionately costly.
- Fueling
Plan structured hourly carbohydrate intake and practice it in training, because many hours of climbing demand steady fueling well before you feel empty.
