Two moments

1The descent

From 9.7 km to 13.0 km

3.4 km · -5.6% average · 53.1 km/h · 101 bpm, peaking at 108

You came down the Kagwema descent at 53 km/h on a gradient that would have carried you faster still, which suggests you weren't hard on the brakes.

2The climb

From 13.1 km to 16.9 km

3.8 km · +190 m at 5.0% · 9.6 km/h · 116 bpm, peaking at 130

You ground up the Gahogo climb at a crawl and your heart barely noticed it was there — either the gradient suited you that day, or you were holding back deliberately at the halfway point.
