- The Tour hits the Pyrenees with 3 categorized climbs:
- Km 30.0 - Col du Portel, 5.3 km climb, average grade 6.3 %, Category 2
- Km 126.5 - Port de Lers ,11.4 km climb average grade 7 %, Category 1
- Km 152.5 - Mur de Péguère , 9.3 km, average grade 7.9 %, Category 1
- Breaking it down by Percentage of FTP: 55% of time (101 minutes) at 40-88% FTP, 20% of time (35 minutes) 90-105% of FTP, 26% of time (46 minutes) at 110-170% of FTP. With over half of the race spent significantly below FTP, it appears as that Sørensen was taking an easier day to have another chance at a stage win in the coming days. Extreme efforts like those displayed during Stage 11 really take their toll on a rider, and he will need to to recover from it before going for another stage win.
- 20-minute Peak Power of 385 W set on final climb of day. During this effort Sørensen climbed 555 m (1820 ft) at 17.7 kph (11 mph).

Glossary
TSS
TrainingPeaks' Training Stress Score (TSS) system allows any endurance athlete the ability to quantify their workouts based on their relative intensity, duration and frequency of workouts.
Normalized Power
Normalized power provides a better measure of the true physiological demands of a given training session - in essence, it is an estimate of the power that you could have maintained for the same physiological "cost" if your power output had been perfectly constant (e.g., as on a stationary cycle ergometer), rather than variable.
Intensity Factor
Intensity Factor provides a valid and convenient way of comparing the relative intensity of a training session or race either within or between riders, taking into account changes or differences in threshold power.
w/kg
Watts per kilogram is the standard measurement of a rider's "power to weight ratio" and represents a rider's average power output over a period of time, divided by the rider's body weight. w/kg equalizes power output between riders of various sizes and, all else being equal, increasing power (watts) or decreasing weight (kg) will make a rider faster.
