About This 100 Mile MTB Training Plan
This is a 3 Month Specific Build Training Plan for Long Mountain Bike Races (e.g. 100 milers).
This plan will get you fit but also make sure you are prepared technically, tactically, and logistically. It follows the same progressions and ideas I have used to help athletes through big races like Leadville, Marji Gesick, Lumberjack, Mohican, and more.
Because 100 mile mountain bike races can range in technicality and physiological demands there are a few notes on how to adjust key preparation workouts to better prepare you for your specific 100 miler.
Is This Endurance Mountain Bike Plan For You?
This plan is for Intermediate and advanced riders doing a 100 mile mountain bike marathon-styled race in about 3 months. It has a multiple Days on a mountain bike weekly, so if you do not want to ride your mountain bike often, this is not the plan for you!
The plan requires about 6-8 hours in shorter weeks up to 12-15 hours in longer weeks. The workouts suggest a range that you choose based on your daily availability and your baseline fitness.
