Here’s the event description:
This five day, three stage Hammerfest will put you into a caloric deficit that you can fill with Halloween candy! It all starts off with a gut wrenching KOM of Box Hill on the London course. We then switch to Watopia for a single island lap. Then it gets crazy with something we’ve never tried before: A whole mess of sprints. Â Complete the segments identified for each stage in the time allotted and upload a result to Strava. For more details about how this works, check out the FAQ.
Stage 1 – Box Hill KOM – Oct 24th and 25th
The Hammerfest kicks off with a 1.9 mile (3.06 km) hike up Box Hill on the London course. We are using the Zwift Insider Verified segment. Get ready to throw down a PR. We have faith in your suffering.Stage 2 – Watopia Single Lap – Oct 26th and 27th
It all started with a simple hilly loop around the island. We are going back to basics on this one with a drop-dead-simple old-school original island circumnavigation.Stage 3 – Watopia Sprint Fest – Oct 28th – 29th
Are you ready for this? It is going to be crazy (awesome). Go to the sprint segment on Watopia (the one that starts under the tunnel) and we will total up your best six (6) attempts into your total time. Sprint, U-turn, Sprint, U-turn, repeat!
