I will share the secret but don't tell anyone.
The reason people lose at hopeless is because the track has like 20 hills.
So what you need is not stamina, or speed, or guts. It's power.
If the terrain condition is not firm, you're even getting power debuffed.
I usually win with 270+ power, if there are more than 2 fronts and lots of paces, I run front. I consistently win in parent runs this way.
