94.7 race results

[amoryns]

question...do you think it is possible for someone to suddenly ride a 94.7 sub 3 if their results were as per below for previous years?

 

2010: 3:39

2011: 3:29

2012: 2:41

EPO!

[Pieterg]

Lots of trainning

[Rudi Pollard]

Depends on training. You can accomplish a lot in 12 months... Is there any other results available through the year?

[W@nna-BE]

possible, i have been riding for under 2 years, last years 94.7 was my first race and my first time over 75km and i did it in 3:27, this year i did it in 3:00:58 with a stop because of my chain, i was heading for a 2:55 maybe?

 

i did not do specific training, i did have 4 weeks coaching with Diane White at Activeworx but did not use it too its full potential!

all i did was do as many races as possible this year with IDT sessions when i could, oh and i bought my "BEAST" love the new bike + ZIPP's

 

I do believe with proper training incl intervals and proper coaching those results are possible!!

[IdeJongh]

A lot can happen in a year.

AH also i grew the B@lls to start riding in bunches, still very bad at it... but learning hahahaha

why 2 X 94,7 in 2012 that could be concerning ?

[dirtrider]

Chap in our office started cycling 6 months ago !!! He said to me he's gonna do a sub 3 94.7 , we laugh and made jokes about it . He did 4 MTB races and this was his first road race starting from NN . He did a 2:58 on his own , no groups and sucking !!

[W@nna-BE]

looks like major improvements after Race for Victory, i did the RFV in 3:14

well done! shows that proper training will show proper results,

 

AMORYNS, are you the coach showing off results??

Easily, it really is not that much of an improvement if this was the first year he/she/it focussed on training as opposed to sommer just riding a bike.

 

I took 40 mins off my K2C time purely by adding two early morning rides to my schedule during winter.
