cas247 Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 Hi guys, I am registered for the 94,7 this year. Last year I tore the ligaments in my foot 2 weeks before the 94,7 so I did not ride it and I fell out of tune with cycling slightly, I haven't done any races this year, just a couple of 100 km training rides, The last ride was probably 3 months back I do a twice a week spin session at the gym, and general weight exercises. My last 94,7 was in 2016 with a time of 3:40 Any thoughts as to how I can train for next months ride/race with only 35 days to go? Thanks Yours sincerelyA stressed out cyclist
shaper Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 Get back to doing your 100km training rides and keep spinning during the week!
Veebee Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 add hill repeats into your routine atleast once a week.
bikebloke Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 in 14 days from now try not to do anything that could result in you tearing the ligaments in your foot

Wet Ears Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 If you can do a couple of 100 km training rides you are more than qualified to complete 94.7 (even if last ride was 3 months back) - you are not going to podium but will finish in a far better shape than a lot of the people out there

Frosty Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 Enter a few events leading up to 947 - this will help you mentally prepare under similar conditions (riding with a bunch, getting dropped, joining the next one, hydration strategy, and more). Very few training rides will give you this preparation, with the added bonus of having backup in the event of a problem.
