Training for 94.7

[Cois]

Okay seeing that the last time someone tried to belittle me cause my 94.7 time was slow I have to beat my time by at least half an hour.

 

 

 

I started training last week again after a short time of being sick.

 

 

 

How can I build base. Start with SLD and some hill sprints ect ect. It feels that I might kill myself if I start doing 50 km+ rides at this stage. I did a 21 km after work today...

 

 

 

Any help on training would help as it seems that what I have been doing is worth nothing.

The local cycling magazines usually carry a training programme round about this time of year. My second 94.7 I used one of them and it worked for me. They usually have different programmes depending on your fitness level and goals etc.

Some concept, different place.

Thanks. Will look out for a Ride. Thanks for the tip... Maybe I should just look at last years...

Okay who can cycle 50 km after work. I get off at 17H00. I was out last night till 18H00 (when it was darkish) I did 25 km. So I will have to be out till 19H00 (total darkness) How can it be done...

Cois if you only have an hour a day during the week, make it a quality hour and put in longer distances over weekend.

Get up at 4 like we do

I agree with Scotty, nothing wrong with an hour a day during the week ....... just make it worthwhile!

Thats exactly why they have IDT's - really great for the quality work outs that Scotty mentioned.

Instead of training km's train by time, 1 hr on the IDT = PLENTY KM'S

Me are night blind. So 4 is not an option.

I agree with Scotty' date=' nothing wrong with an hour a day during the week ....... just make it worthwhile!

Where there is a WILL there is a....., relative. Sunrise comes earlier very morning. Nothing wrong with a small light on your zikkel, or helmet. 5 O'clock every morning I'm out there. It is all about WILL power mate. Make it happen!

Pardon my ignorance, wot's SLD?

Slow long distance...
