• Interested in how much training everyone is doing. No idea how much is enough but it's tough trying to navigate the balance of sitting in an office all day, being a reasonable father and getting the miles in.

    I'm currently doing between 3-400km per week made up of the following :
    1 or 2x midweek afterwork hill sessions @ 50km each
    80km of commuting
    1 x longish ride on the weekend of approx 200km.

    Conscious that I'll be needing to ride at least 320km per day so will be needing to ramp this up!
    What chu doing and for those that gave ridden before, what was the max you were riding per week pre TCR?
    Also see that some people hit the gym etc so also interested in what the benefits of this might be on ultra racing.

  • Mon - recovery day
    Tue - Terrible Tuesdays, beer drinking until 5am
    Wed - still can't stand smell of alcohol
    Thu - sun's out, cocktails at preferred outdoor bar
    Fri - ok, but i'll only stay for the one
    Sat - NULL
    Sun - wake up in strange hospital with alcohol poisoning

    Jeez, I could have been an ultra racer in my teenage years with that kind of training.
