Why O-SEE 100k Is Harder Than Its Elevation Looks (12% Average Uphill, 20% Flat, Biggest Climb at km 75)
Q: How hard is the XTERRA O-SEE Ultra Trail 100km? A: Harder than the elevation figure suggests. The course covers 100.2 km with 3,451 m of gain (34.4 m/km), but the distance-weighted average uphill gradient of 12.04% — in the top ~10–14% of the DTR database — reflects a course that is almost constantly ascending or descending (only 20.3% flat). The biggest climb (354m at km 75) arrives after three-quarters of the race, with a 54.86% maximum gradient spike. Entry requires completion of a ≥75km trail race in the last five years.
