Where the numbers come from
The course is the public Strava route published by the organiser (« Medio Maratón Valencia »), read without an account through its public embed. Altigraph shows the computed profile and links to the original route; the track itself is not redistributed.
No official climbing figure was found on the organiser's website; the 40 m above are computed by Altigraph after smoothing the altitude over 50 m, which removes GPS jitter. Adding up every rise of the same track without any smoothing gives 64 m: that raw sum is usually the figure race brochures quote.
Method: the track is resampled every 10 m, altitude is smoothed over 50 m either side, the local gradient is measured over 100 m, then the course is cut into climbs (over 1.5 %), descents (under -1.5 %) and flat parts. The thresholds are the same as on the home page.
