All the ladies know that I'm a fast finisher...
I dunno, I'd need to look at the power figures but in all my ultras I at least feel I'm going harder on the last day. Same case with the 24hrs I'd finish strong but then they were perhaps ridden more conservatively given there was only one race a year and I wanted to win it.

If you have anything left to give, sure you might lift for the finish. But it might not always play out that way, depending on how you plan to close out the race.
In 2016 I was physically (and mentally) spent on the last day, as I'd already upped my effort to close it out about a day and a half earlier! My PM battery had run out by then but my last 3 days power profile might have looked like that guy's (with proportionately lower numbers).
