Leadville LT 100 Training Plan:
This program is both heart rate and/or power compatible. You will perform testing throughout the program to update your power and heart rate zones, and also to test your progression throughout the plan.
This 3 month training plan will incrementally build your fitness so you are at your peak fitness for the Leadville Trail 100. This training plan can be used with power and/or heart rate training.
This training plan is 6 days a week with off days on Monday. Workouts on Tues-Friday are shorter and can be done indoors or outdoors. Workouts on the weekends are longer and are preferably done outdoors. Each week is 10-15 hours total.
This plan specifically moves right into race-specific work for Leadville. You will be given race specific long rides every Saturday that work on combination of fitness, pacing, and nutrition strategy for your race day. In addition to that, during the week you will be working on a combination of longer tempo and threshold work. There will also be trail workouts integrated into the program to keep you in top form and handling shape for riding on your mountain bike. It's important to get those done on trail/off-road to build efficiency and speed off-road!
Every week of this program begins with a detailed description, describing the goal for the week.
This 12 week plan is designed to build your fitness and threshold so that you can enter the intensity phase of your race build with more potential!
